Police in Kampala have arrested two suspects in connection with the killing of Maj Sheikh Muhammad Kiggundu last month.
Mr Emilian Kayima, Kampala Metropolitan Police spokesperson said the suspects who are boda boda riders at Old Taxi Park in Kampala were arrested on Thursday after being suspected of having used their motorcycles to transport the assassins to the crime scene and aiding their escape.
Maj Kiggundu was killed alongside his body guard Stephen Mukasa on November 26 at Masanafu, a suburb of Kampala.
The killers who were riding on two boda bodas intercepted the victims who were moving in a UPDF pickup truck at Masanafu and shot them dead.
“We have two suspects in our cells. To be specific, at Nalufenya Police station. We are interrogating them to establish whether they participated in the murder of Maj Kiggundu,” Mr Kayima said.
The arrest of two boda boda riders brings the number of suspects arrested since the murder of Maj Kiggundu to six.
These include Sheikh Yahaya Mwanje, the acting Tabliq Sect leader at Nakasero Mosque and three security operatives.
Although police were yet to give details about the two arrested boda-boda riders, Daily Monitor has learnt that one of the suspects is a Sheikh at the Nakasero-based Tabliq mosque.
