One of them identified himself as Kananya Sulaiman of Nansana. They further allege that the public had arrested one whom they were threatening to lynch to death.

The two officers and the disguised victims proceeded up to Sebobo village. They disembarked from their motorcycles and were led towards Happy nursery school, where the victims together with others, ganged and attacked the officers.

“The assailants shot and killed Cpl Okech Alfred twice to the head. They also hacked PC Kigongo Moses, to the head and neck, killing him instantly. They robbed the two police guns and disappeared from the scene,” said Police in a statement.
