A
senior officer of the Uganda Police Force shot dead two men who had invaded his
residence along Nabweru Road, on Saturday night.
Our
Sources reveal that Dennis Nyanzi Kasibante, the Nansana Police Division Field
Force Unit-FFU Commandant, shot the thugs after the broke into his house and
tried to run away with stolen property.
Luke
Owoyesigyire, the Kampala Metropolitan Police Deputy publicist said that
“The
deceased had entered the officer’s home using rudimentary weapons.”
Owoyesigyire
added that Kasibante shot the intruders in self-defense to protect himself and
his property from the intruders.
He
said there were five intruders but three of them managed to escape.
He revealed that the thugs had hammers, sharp
knives and master keys. After the attack the two were moving away with the TV
set and other items so the officer acted
in defense and two were put out of action.
He
explained that the police are already investigating the matter although by press
time the deceased had not yet been identified. Their corpses were taken the
Kampala Capital City mortuary in Mulago as investigations continue.
