Police Arrest 7 Over Murder of Lwomwa Daniel Bbosa

The Crime Intelligence and CID task team efforts alongside the Kampala Metropolitan Territorial Teams, have arrested seven suspects linked to the murder by shooting of businessman and Ndiga clan leader Eng. Daniel Bbosa.

Fred Enanga, the police spokesperson, revealed this to media in Kmpala on Monday that “Our teams have been relentless in their pursuit of justice for Eng. Daniel Bbosa. We have successfully arrested seven individuals, including Lujja Noah, who has fully regained consciousness after being hospitalized.”

Among the detainees is Milly Naluwenda of Kisekwa Court, identified as part of the suspects involved in the tragic murder of Eng. Daniel Bbosa on the evening of February 25, 2024. The incident occurred around 6 p.m. in Lungujja as Eng. Bbosa was on the way to his residence in Kikandwa zone.

Enanga further disclosed, “While we are not divulging the particulars of the remaining five suspects at this time, the case file has been submitted to the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) for legal guidance on their involvement in the murder plot.”

The police spokesperson emphasized that the apprehended suspects, along with other perpetrators still at large, are believed to be connected to the broader criminal network responsible for the recent spate of violent crimes.

“We assure the family and loved ones of Eng. Daniel Bbosa that our pursuit of justice remains active and relentless,” stated Enanga. “We are aggressively pursuing all leads to apprehend those responsible for this heinous crime.”

The CID has issued an appeal for information leading to the arrest of Lujja Bbosa Tabula, the mastermind behind the shooting.

According to Enanga, a substantial cash reward of Shs10 million awaits any member of the public who can avail the information that can lead to the arrest of the suspect.

“Lujja Bbosa Tabula is a key suspect in the murder plot, believed to have played a significant role in sourcing the weapon used in the killing,” Enanga explained. “We urge anyone with knowledge of his whereabouts to contact the nearest police station or reach out to the CID.”

The suspect, aged 38 and a resident of Kabango Village, Kakora Parish, Mutibagumu Sub-county, Mpigi District, is considered armed and dangerous. The police advised the public to exercise caution and cooperate with law enforcement to ensure his swift apprehension.
