Kiiza Alkanglo Alali a security guard attached to Millennium Company shot dead a 27-year-old man identified as Doribert Atwesigye, who is said to be an employee of National Water and Sewerage Cooperation (NWSC), after a heated argument on Sunday morning.
Kampala Metropolitan Police Spokesperson, Patrick Onyango said Atwesigye who had gone to visit a girlfriend, reportedly got an argument with the security guard prompting him to shoot and injure him. The victim was rushed to Iran Uganda Hospital in Naguru where he died later.
It is alleged that Atwesigye, who had made plans with his girlfriend, a third year student at Kyambogo university, did not sign in at the entrance and told the security guard that he had not moved with his national ID.
However, the guard was not going to have any of this and thus denied him entry. Atwesigye was however hell-bent on seeing his girlfriend hence trying to force his way into the hostel.
A heated argument ensued, insults were exchanged and within no minute Alali went for his gun and shot Atwesigye in the stomach.
The security guard was eventually arrested by the police in Banda and his gun no. SR UG PSO 12085000-03817 with one round of live ammunition recovered. He is charged with murder. The case has been registered at Banda Police Station, reference SD06/29/9/2019.
