Uganda: 3 arrested over killing of terror prosecutor

None

Ugandan police have arrested at least three people over the killing last month of a senior prosecutor who was involved in the trial of a dozen men accused of belonging to the Somali armed group al-Shabab.

 

Ugandan police chief Kale Kayihura told reporters on Tuesday that the suspects - who once lived in the Kampala neighborhood where prosecutor Joan Kagezi was shot dead - had changed their physical address three times, leading a surveillance team to suspect they played a role in the killings.

 

Police on Tuesday searched an apartment on the outskirts of Kampala that the suspects occupied before they were arrested. They were not identified.
