UGANDA: Police chief, Gen. Muzeyi kidnaps Bobi Wine's Promoter (PHOTOS)

POLICE CHIEF, GEN. MUZEYI KIDNAPS BOBI WINE'S PROMOTER

CHANGE OF GUARDS - Yesterday a squad of heavily armed unidentified security goons violently kidnapped a one Mukasa John aka Banjo of Banjo Events and Marketing Ltd. This was shortly after Banjo had finished addressing journalists over the schedule of an upcoming People Power Marathon in Kampala meant to raise funds to support children whose parents have died in the People Power struggle.

While violent arrests and kidnaps have become the order of the day, what is most intriguing is that Banjo was immediately pushed into a waiting van Reg. No. UAT511T. This is the same number plate that was on the Toyota Landcruiser that Gen. Muzeyi used early last year when he went to appear before Parliament. The said Number Plate was found to be registered with a Toyota Spacio car. As usual, the army at the time came up with fake explaations to hoodwink Ugandans. See the details below:

OF FAKE PRIVATE MV NO. PLATES USED BY MUSEVENI'S SECURITY GOONS
Gullible Ugandans are up in arms once again this time around over a civilian number plated PSV commuter taxi that was recently used by Museveni's security goons to brutally torture before kidnapping an opposition youth activist. Some volunteers have acquired and published the detailed particulars of the said privately owned Toyota Hiace taxi.

Around March 2018, Museveni's newly appointed police chief, Brig Sabiiti showed up at Parliament for vetting in a vehicle, which on closer scrutiny, turned out to be registered in the names of another person. The Toyota Prado registration number UAT 511C, according to the URA records, belongs to Abdallah Trading Co Ltd, and was supposed to be Corolla Spacio. The army was quick to make a clarification that the Land Cruiser, did not belong to Brig Sabiiti, but the Protocol Department of the army.
"Yesterday the Deputy IGP Brig Sabiiti Muzeeyi traveled to parliament in a vehicle with non-government number plates. The vehicle in question belongs to the Protocol Department and after the transition; he will be assigned an official police vehicle,” said the army spokesperson Brig Richard Karemire.
According to Karemire, because of security sensitivities the UPDF’s Protocol Department, has a pool of cars, some of which have private number plates.
This, he says is to “execute tasks in support of our leaders and foreign guests.”

SECURITY AGENCIES' SOURCES OF CIVILIAN NUMBER PLATES
Given the nature of their work, some sections of the security apparatus and more so the intelligence community use vehicles with civilian number plates. The registration of such cars is done with the help of the Central Registry of Motor vehicles under the customs department (URA). In some cases they are just given number plates that are not attached to any particular type of car. Such an arrangement is not restricted to motor vehicle numbed plates but to other facilities like unrestricted security pass to the airport, the SIM cards and private calls log printouts from telecommunications companies, diplomatic and expressly processed passports by the immigration department etc.

However, the privilege is more often abused by security agencies in commission of heinous crimes like outright smuggling, aiding of smugglers, kidnaps, robberies, blackmail and ransom.
Some times, the SIM cards from victims who are either in detention or have been made to disappear continue to be used by members of the security services. In the case of vehicle number plates, they even use those that they pluck from recovered stolen vehicles and such vehicles that have been grounded for traffic offences or scrap following a road accident.

For the regime apologists, you just need to read the horrific narrative below;
CMI IN MURDER, ROBBERY SCANDAL
The Observer
March 12, 2009
Abducted in 2006, Kiggundu was killed and his body burnt. His car was stolen, but a CMI ‘boss’ has been caught using its number plate. Police are investigating clues that senior officers of the Chieftaincy of Military Intelligence (CMI) may have murdered a taxi driver and stolen his vehicle. A car registration number plate, UAG 865R, that belonged to the slain driver’s car was last week recovered from an army green Toyota Hilux pickup driven by an officer of the CMI.

The officer who Police declined to name, but The Weekly Observer learnt is Lt. Bertin Adibango, was interrogated at Kira Road Police Station after he was arrested at Market View Joint Restaurant and Takeaway on Semawata Road in Ntinda, a Kampala suburb. Adibango was released after he told Police that the vehicle belonged to his “boss.”
The vehicle was still impounded at Kira Road Police Station in Kampala by the time The Weekly Observer went to press. Police identified the murdered driver as Robert Kiggundu. His car, a Toyota Corolla, has never been seen.
The Director of CID, John Okoth Ochola, described the case as “high profile” while officers at Kira Road Police station where it was reported said “it is too heavy to be handled by individual officers and the station because it involved officers from a sister security” organisation.

Relatives said Kiggundu was murdered on March 17, 2006 and his charred body was recovered on Malcolm X Road in the upmarket Kololo area. His vehicle, a Toyota Corolla UAG 865R, has never been recovered. He was 28 at the time of his murder and was a special hire taxi driver outside Ntinda New Market from where his assailants picked him that fateful night. The Weekly Observer has seen a URA vehicle registration log book dated September 8, 2005 that shows that number plate UAG 865R was for a vehicle whose first owner in Uganda was Fred Tamale, the late Kiggundu’s younger brother. Tamale told The Weekly Observer that he bought the vehicle for Kiggundu and had not transferred its ownership to another person. He said that he had reported the murder of his brother and the theft of the car to Police but gave up on the matter after Police made no headway.

“The important thing was the person and he had died…,” said Tamale in a resigned tone.
While Tamale may have given up, fate appeared to work in his favour. On Friday, February 27, 2009 an army green Toyota Hilux UAG 865R was seen parked at Market View Joint Restaurant and Takeaway at the junction of Ntinda-Nakawa Road and Semawata Road opposite New Market stage where Kiggundu used to operate from. Adibango, the CMI officer who was driving it, is a regular at the restaurant.
Some people who knew the number plate alerted Police and the relatives of the deceased. These however, arrived after the vehicle had been driven away.

Last week, the vehicle returned to the same restaurant. This time Police swung into action as quickly as the legendary hunter whose trap was made out of banana fibres.
According to a source who witnessed the arrest, Police officers disarmed Adibango of his pistol, handcuffed and whisked him to Kira Road Police Station. The Weekly Observer has been told that Lt. Adibango recorded a statement and was immediately released upon the intervention of his senior colleagues. Alex Asiimwe, the DPC of Kira Road Police Station, was ambiguous when asked about Adibango.
“I don’t know whether he is with us,” he said.

Our Police sources however indicated that Adibango denied ownership of the vehicle. He is said to have told them that he borrowed it from his “boss” to use during the burial of a relative in Nebbi. Adibango reportedly denied involvement in the murder of Kiggundu, saying he was working in Southern Sudan at the time it happened. When this reporter asked the operator of the restaurant who Adibango is, the lady said she did know him but he was only “a regular customer.”

She later said that Adibango works with the CMI. “He [Adibango] is a senior person in CMI and that vehicle is used by senior people in CMI, like directors,” said the woman who refused to identify herself but sounded authoritative and knowledgeable. She added: “Much as he was a big man in hierarchy, the vehicle belonged to CMI bosses.”
The lady later became enraged and warned this writer to stop asking her questions “if you want to avoid danger.” She attempted to call somebody to arrest this reporter but the number she dialed wasn’t responding.

This lady has her own version of the story about Kiggundu’s death. Before she became angry with this reporter, she had said that Kiggundu was a robber who was killed during a failed robbery attempt. She claimed that CMI was deliberately using the number plate as a bait to arrest whoever claimed it to help in their investigations. She did not name the source of her information. So sensitive is the case that officers who handled the case at Kira Road Police feared to comment on the matter or reveal their identity. An officer who we later came to know as the OC/CID at the station only said:
“The matter has been reported here but for more information go to Kibuli” [CID headquarters].

Another Police officer was honest about why he feared to be quoted. He said:
“You want to attribute the story to me. No, no…I want my job. I don’t want to be fired.”
The DPC, Alex Asiimwe, spoke on the record but sounded contradictory;
“What you are saying is different from what I know, if it was the same, I would have confirmed.” When confronted with facts, he however admitted that the case had been reported.
“We have forwarded the matter to headquarters; go and talk to [the Deputy Director CID Moses] Balimoyo.”

The CID Director, John Okoth Ochola, also declined to give details;
“It is true we have taken over investigations of that case. It is being handled by our Homicide Department,” Ochola said on phone.
He declined to say which CMI “bosses” had been named.
“It is too early for me to tell; the file has just been brought to me but leave the rest to us…” he said.

While “investigations” go on, The Weekly Observer has been told that there are some behind-the-scene talks between Kiggundu’s relatives and CMI to reach an amicable settlement.
Indeed when this reporter telephoned the late Kiggundu’s father, George William Mugerwa last week, he said he was at CMI offices waiting to meet an officer. He later told this writer that he had been at CMI offices “the whole day” but refused to say what they had discussed or agreed on. “Investigations are on-going and I am still reporting to Police,” is all that he said.
He also couldn’t reveal details of his talks with CMI and a possibility of out-of-court settlement of the case. “I can’t tell you much on phone. I have to meet you.” Ochola however ruled out a possibility of an out of court/Police settlement of the case. “This is a criminal case of high profile [nature that cannot] be settled out of court,” he said. We were unable to speak to James Mugira, the CMI chief, because his known mobile phone line was not accessible. A lady who answered the office line said he was not in office on Monday and Tuesday.
-----------------------------------------------
You just need to closely observe the way a particular vehicle's number plate is affixed i.e using the one way screws and nuts which are not easily removed or the other ones that are easy to remove and replace.
INFORMATION IS POWER
---------------------------------------------
From the a foregoing, it can be concluded that the Gen. Muzeyi was either among the kidnappers of Banjo or he is the one who sent and facilitated them.

INFORMATION IS POWER AND THE PROBLEM OF UGANDA IS MUSEVENISM
