Ndiga (sheep) clan leader Daniel Bbosa was killed inside his car near his home in Lungujja parish, Lubaga Division, Kampala, on Sunday at around 6 p.m.
According to the police, the assailants, who were riding on a motorcycle with registration number UEX 754E, opened fire at Bbosa’s motor vehicle, bearing registration number UAH 637X, resulting in his immediate demise.
However, after committing the act, a vigilant local resident bravely intervened, knocking down the assailants’ motorcycle and alerting the community.
This prompted members of the community to mobilize themselves, leading to a confrontation with the assailants.
The police say that mob justice ensued, resulting in the death of one assailant at the scene, while the other remains in critical condition.
“The motive behind this senseless act of violence remains unknown, and efforts are underway to identify and apprehend the perpetrators,” says the police.
The police recovered the firearm allegedly used in the murder incident, along with the motorcycle used by the assailants during the attack.
“These findings will be instrumental in our ongoing investigation,” said the police.
