Police in Kabalagala are holding one suspect in connection with a murder that occurred today Wednesday morning in Bwire Zone, Kabalagala Parish, Makindye Division, Kampala District.
The deceased has been identified as Kalyango Bob, a 53-year-old male who worked as a cleaner at Kabalagala Parents School and was a resident of Kibuli, Makindye Division, Kampala District.
According to Kampala Metropolitan Police Spokeswoman Rachael Kawala, the suspect has been identified as Farida Nakakande, a 38-year-old female and resident of Bwire Zone, Kabalagala Parish, Makindye Division.
Preliminary investigations indicate that the incident occurred behind Namayanja’s Bar in Bwire Zone.
“It is alleged that the deceased picked a quarrel with the suspect, leading to a physical altercation. The dispute reportedly arose after the deceased was accused of smoking near the suspect’s residence,” Kawala said.
During the confrontation, the suspect allegedly picked up a knife from her room and stabbed the deceased in the right rib.
“The victim sustained fatal injuries and was pronounced dead,” said Kawala.
The body of the deceased was conveyed to the KCCA Mortuary for a postmortem examination, while the suspect remains in police custody to assist with ongoing investigations.
