Police in Mityana arrested a man, allegedly for stabbing and murdering his friend after finding him making love with his wife in a coffee plantation.
Wamala region police spokesperson, Superintendent of Police, Racheal Kawala, noted that the deceased, Edward Ssekiwunga, had been invited to enjoy Christmas with the family of Peter Bafirawala at Busaata Kyamagemule village, Kalangaalo subcounty in Mityana district.
“It is alleged that on Christmas, Bafirawala invited the deceased together with other people for a Christmas party at their home. The deceased first went to Kalangalo to watch a football match and later proceeded to the suspects home at around 11 p.m., but the suspect was already sleeping, so he decided to move out with the wife to the suspect,” Kawala narrated.
