The recovered gun which has since been exhibited is a star pistol and contained 13 rounds of ammunition.

“The task team at Jinja Road Police Station will further establish whether the suspect had an operating license for the firearm or not,” says Luke.

He adds that the gun will also be forwarded for further forensic analysis to also establish whether it was electronically registered during the ongoing exercise of electronic registration of firearms and whether it has ever been used in any crime.

The police have also taken action against the court orderlies, who were supposed to ensure that every person is effectively searched from head to toe, for failure to carry out their duties.

After the shocking chaos to the judge, the court decided to cancel the bail of Luzinda and remanded him to Kitalya Prisons.

Police say, “We have also opened another offence against him of threatening violence and attempted murder.”
