It should be remembered that businessman Ephraim Ntaganda, who wanted to grab Dr Apollo Kagwa’s land in Kajjansi, later feigned a complaint at Kampala Metropolitan Police, and the illadvised officers raided his home with intent to detain him. This whole arrangement was intended to grab his property.
According to sources at DPP there was nothing in the file, apart from Ntaganda’s complaint.

Apparently, this is what police is doing. They get facilitated by either party and the victims find themselves in court. This is because court cases are not straightforward, victims depend on the mercy of God. Manipulations are part and partial of the processes. DPP still stands as the only saviour in this corrupt circle of officials.

The Drone Media did dig into this only to find an organised group of corrupt officials, who systematically conive to make their missions succeed. Once a victim is identified, they will open a General Enquiry File (GEF), they use this file because it is provided for in penal code, but in the process they abuse it. Authorities should help the public, common man is in trouble.
