Police: Aine's relatives confident of his whereabouts

PRESS STATEMENT

Today, 11^.01.2016, some social media platforms carried information purporting that Mr.Musasizi Moses Aine is missing and that he was arrested by security personnel.

The Uganda Police Force would like to inform the public that this information is not true and is aimed at creating unnecessary alarm among peace loving Ugandans.

The Police would also like to confirm that his relatives both in Mbarara and Kampala are confident of the whereabouts of Mr. Musasizi Moses Aine. We encourage all members of the public to disregard this false information as we investigate its source.

The Police have also learnt of the allegations being spread in the media that the lawyers of Mr. Rwomushana Charles are not aware of his whereabouts.

On Saturday 09.01.1016, a team of lawyers of Mr. Rwomushana visited the Special Investigations Division at Kireka where they met the Ag. Deputy Director Odong Mark.

The team led by Mr. Andrew Karamagi arrived at Kireka at around 10:00am. However, they were advised to return at 01:00pm when visitors would be allowed access to the suspects. Visitation hours at Special Investigation Division (S.I.D) are restricted to 07:00 - 08:00am, 01:00-02:00pm and 05:00-06:00pm.

Therefore, visitors are encouraged to take note of these visiting hours and this is what was expected of Mr. Karamagi since he presented himself as a friend to Mr. Rwomushana Charles, and not as his lawyer.

The Police would like to re-assure the public that Mr. Andrew Karamagi and his team has today at 05:00pm returned and visited Mr. Rwomushana Charles at S.I.D at Kireka without any hindrance.

Finally, the public is encouraged to keep time and respect the guidelines given at the Police stations to enable station management to carry out other administrative activities as well.
