“The hunt for the suspects in the matter is still on,” the police spokesperson Rusoke Kituuma said yesterday in an interview.

The incident left Pastor Bugingo from House of Prayer Ministries International in Kampala injured, while his bodyguard, Corporal Richard Muhumuza from the Special Forces Command (SFC), later succumbed to serious injuries from the bullet wounds.

The deceased, whom his colleagues said was in his late 30s, hailed from Sembabule District. The deceased had served as Pastor Bugingo’s bodyguard for about 10 months.

The police had earlier offered a Shs20 million prize to any member of the public who could offer information about the identity of the suspects.

Police investigations also indicated the pistol in the shooting was linked to the one that was used to kill vlogger Isma Olaxes in May 2023.

The shooting mystery adds to many others that have happened in recent years, with no conclusive investigations.

In June 2018, Arua Municipality MP Ibrahim Abiriga was shot dead as he approached his home in Kawanda, Wakiso District. To date, no suspect has been charged in court over the crime.

The police had initially arrested a boy from a neighbouring homestead who had dropped a mobile handset at the scene of the crime. But later police released him after realising the juvenile had dropped the phone there accidently.

On May 6, 2023, Vlogger Isma Olaxes was shot and killed in his car by unknown assailants near his home in Kyanja, a Kampala suburb. However up to now, no suspects have been taken to court over this matter.
