Despite the fact that the man has been claiming to be a political refugee, his family is among people accusing him of having defiled his own child. <\/p>\n

In November 2020, a brother of Sgt. Maj. Robert Kabera asked him to report himself to the judiciary instead of playing blame games to tarnish Rwanda. <\/p>\n

His family rejected his claims noting that what Robert claimed was far different from the reality. <\/p>\n

\u201cAs relatives, we strongly condemn his shameful acts of defiling his daughter and escaping justice lying that the Government of Rwanda is hunting him because he is from the family of Rwigema,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n

{{Collaboration with RNC }}<\/p>\n

Recently, Uganda\u2019s security officials arrested Sgt Robert and searched his house for being suspected of illegal possession of a gun. <\/p>\n

Within few days of his detention and after his release, details emerged that he is in close collaboration with Rwanda National Congress (RNC), a terrorist group founded by Kayumba Nyamwasa to destabilize Rwanda. <\/p>\n

Following his release last week, Sgt Maj Robert was seen on some streets of Kampala posing for photos with Sulah Nuwamanya and Prossy Bonabaana, two senior members of RNC based in Uganda. <\/p>\n

Their activities were previously carried out under the cover of an organization dubbed, Self-Worth Initiative which they used to recruit new members into the terror group. <\/p>\n

It is said that those denying to join the rebel group were reported to the Chieftaincy of Military Intelligence (CMI) and accused of being Rwanda\u2019s spies. <\/p>\n

Sulah Nuwamanya and Prossy Bonabaana were recently seen in a picture with Sgt Robert after his release. <\/p>\n

A source has revealed to IGIHE that Robert\u2019s collaboration with these top RNC members was among reasons for his arrest. <\/p>\n

\u201cThe reason for his arrest is clear because he already has collaboration with RNC members. Continuing to do so after his release is not surprising because it has become his identity,” the source said. <\/p>\n

Reliable sources have revealed that Sulah Nuwamanya and Prossy Bonabaana played a big role to have Sgt Maj Robert released through few security officials in Uganda still cooperating with Kayumba Nyamwasa. <\/p>\n

{{Gen Muhoozi’s willingness }}<\/p>\n

Lt Gen Muhoozi Kainerugaba, the Senior Presidential Advisor on Special Operations and Commander of Land Forces of the Uganda People\u2019s Defence Forces (UPDF) has been showing willingness to put an end on the collaboration that existed between RNC and Ugandan security officials since he embarked on the journey to mend relations with Rwanda. <\/p>\n

As part of these efforts, Uganda recently expelled Robert Mukombozi, the coordinator of RNC activities in Australia. <\/p>\n

A source has told IGIHE that the continuing collaboration between Uganda\u2019s security officials with RNC should not be considered as the failure of Muhoozi or lack of will to solve pending issues. <\/p>\n

\u201cUganda\u2019s situation is complex. There are some individuals who can violate laws or do what they want which can affect the willingness of Muhoozi,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n

\u201cHe does not have complete power to prevent it from happening. We don\u2019t doubt about the willingness of Muhoozi, he is serious on his promise but he might not be able to stop it at once,\u201d added the source. <\/p>\n

Even though he rose through military ranks from Sergeant to Sergeant Major, Kabera Robert gained popularity for his stage name as \u2018Sergeant Robert\u2019.<\/p>\n

Before fleeing, he was part of RDF Army Military Band renowned for his song \u2018Impanda\u2019 among other songs praising Rwanda\u2019s army.<\/p>\n
