Man sentenced to 30hrs community service over urination

A 23-year-old man has been sentenced to 30 hours of community service after he pleaded guilty to urinating in a mineral water bottle that is meant for beverage use.

Steven Ssendegeye, a bodaboda rider at Sir Apollo Kaggwa Road, was arrested on the morning of May 10 2017, by KCCA enforcement officers while throwing the said bottle in a drainage channel.

He has appeared before Grade One Magistrate, Moses Nabende, and accepted the offence of causing a nuisance to exist as the said bottle could be recycled for beverage use or block the drainage system.
