Gen. Muhoozi Kainerugaba, the First Son and Senior Presidential Advisor on Special Operations, has requested that security and law enforcement forces look into and apprehend the perpetrators of the recent attacks on his “supporters” as soon as possible.
Gen. Muhoozi was discussing the attempt on Pastor Aloysius Bugingo’s life, in which he and his aide were ambushed by unidentified gunmen, resulting in the latter’s death.
“We praise the Lord that our strong supporter, Pastor Bugingo, survived an attempt on his life last night as he was driving home. I have spoken to him and he is well. He got slightly wounded in his left shoulder. A friend and member of his church was killed by the assassin,”Gen Muhoozi said.
“Once again we urge the law enforcement agencies to quickly investigate and bring these criminals to justice. Who are these criminals? Is it ADF or some other shadowy group? We need answers to these questions,” he added.
The attack on Bugingo, according to Gen. Muhoozi, is the eighth attack on his followers in the last eight months. He expresses dismay that no one has been prosecuted for these attacks yet.
“The case of the cold-blooded murder of Isma Olaxess is still unresolved. Once again we thank God that Pastor Bugingo survived this heinous attack,” he said.
