According to the police spokesman, the division, which is part of the CID Headquarters in Kibuli, is now handling the case which occurred on January 2 at around 10 P.M. at Bawalakata zone in Namungoona parish, Kawempe division.
He expressed disappointment in the sentiments being shared by netizens.
"Already, the internet, social media, netizens, and propagandists are awash with all sorts of versions and fringe statements, which are quite absurd. So many people, including families who lost their loved ones under similar tragic circumstances, are hurt by the fringe beliefs of the bloggers, the majority of whom are based in UAE, Turkey, and Boston," reads the statement.
"Although part of the police findings were leaked to the media through informal sources, we would like to assure the country that we have comprised a competent team that is actively investigating the matter at the SID. They are continuing to obtain witness statements, retrieved post-mortem reports, CCTV, forensic and ballistic reports for further evaluation and flow of investigations."
Police appealed to the public to share any information that may lead to the identification and arrest of the suspects as well as the successful recovery of weapons used in the crime. A cash prize of Shs20 million has been offered in that regard.
"A substantial cash reward of twenty million shillings only awaits any member of the public who avails us credible information that can lead to the arrest of the suspects and recovery of the killer's weapon," reads the statement
A progressive report will be availed in due course, Enanga said.
