A Kampala City Hall court has released Assistant Superintendent of Police (ASP) Clive Nsiima Barigye on a cash bail of Shs 1 million after spending several days on remand at Luzira Prison.
Nsiima, who serves with the Counter Terrorism Directorate’s Oil and Gas Protection Unit, is accused of assaulting a female shop attendant at a Shell outlet in Kyanja. The incident, captured on CCTV, reportedly stemmed from a disagreement over a Shs 30,000 unpaid bill.

The court granted bail after finding his three sureties — Daniel Mushabe Katanyomba, an Internal Security Organization (ISO) staff member; his brother, Mark Igumira; and Cynthia Nkwanzi, a resident of Nakawa Division — to be credible. Each surety signed a non-cash bond worth Shs 5 million to ensure Nsiima’s compliance with court proceedings.
Presiding magistrate dismissed the prosecution’s objection to bail, ruling that claims of public hostility toward the accused were unsubstantiated.
Nsiima will return to court on 6 November 2025 when the trial is scheduled to begin.
