The king appeared before Jinja Chief Magistrate John Francis Kaggwa who charged him with murder he allegedly killed in March a case that was not related to the most recent Kasese clashes.  In related news, Kaweesi  explained the discrepancy in the number of clashes stating that some who might have escaped the heat of the fight later succumbed to  injuries away from the central point of clashes.
