Pastor Aloysious Bugingo from the House of Prayer Ministry, has asked police authority to release an investigative report into his attempted murder and the unfortunate killing of his bodyguard, Muhumuza Richard.
The man of God made this request during his sermons at the Kikoni- Makerere Church on Sunday as he expressed his dissatisfactions with the pace of the investigation, highlighting the abundance of cameras at the crime scene and frequent police visits, demanding transparency in the probe
He went to say that he wants the report to be made public since they are still many unanswered questions and it is only comprehensive investigative report which will settle people’s minds. And that he always pray to God that the Culprits are arrested but his prayers have not yet been answered.
The intial police report stated that bullet casings collected from the scene of crime, they established that a pistol was used to shoot at pastor Aloysius Bugingo and his driver who also doubled as bodyguard Richard Muhumuza it was the same pistol used in the murder of blogger, Isma Olaxes.
The duo was allegedly shot at along Buwalakata road, Namungoona, in Lubaga Division, on January 2nd, 2024by gunmen moving on a motorcycle. Muhumuza, 45, who hailed from Sembabule district allegedly died on the spot and pastor Bugingo managed to survive with minor injuries.
According to his brother, Geoffrey Kayumba and Lwbitakuli village chairman Stephen Ssenyonyi, Muhumuza left three children. Muhumuza was apparently one of the best highly trained body-to-body secret service guards.
Although police pathologists found more than 10 bullet wounds on Muhumuza’s body, it raised further questions about how Bugingo survived the assassination and how he was able to drive the targeted car from the crime scene to Mulago hospital.
As investigations continue, no arrests have been made in connection to the attempted murder.
