THE Police are hunting for unknown killers who murdered the chairman of Kampala Shoe Shiners Association, Sowedi Mande, at his office on Wednesday night.
Mande was killed and locked inside his office where he had reportedly returned to pick up some items at 11:30pm.
The office is located at Kavada Market near Kafumbe Mukasa Road, in Kisenyi, a Kampala suburb.
The market security officer, John Bukenya said Mande had not reported to work for two days.
“It was unusual for him to be in office at such a time,†Bukenya said. Kasaga Kisekka, the associations’ secretary general, said it was a shock to find their chairman dead after two days without reporting to work.
“I reported to office and found the door locked. I opened it and got shocked to find our boss dead. I reported the matter to Police immediately,†Kiseka said.
The officer-in-charge of Kafumbe Mukasa Road police post, Manday F, said they were investigating the matter.
Sowedi is survived with three wives and six children.
