Kaddu, a resident of Mackay zone in Mengo, Kampala, was ordered to return to court on April 24.

He was subjected to a mental examination on Wednesday and it was established that he is mentally fine and fit to be prosecuted.

However, his family maintains that he is mentally unstable whereas Kaddu says he is demon possessed.

It is alleged that during Easter prayers on April 1, Kaddu charged towards Bishop Luwalira as he was preaching and crashed into a wooden barrier at the altar before reaching his perceived target. He was intercepted by church members and Police.
