These include the February 2020 killing of Sheikh Mutumba; the September 2018 killing of former Buyende District Police Commander Mohammad Kirumira and his friend, Resty Nalinya; the July 2018 killing of former Arua Municipality MP Ibrahim Abiriga and his bodyguard Saidi Buga Kongo; the February 2018 killing of Susan Magara and the March 2017 killing of the former police spokesperson Andrew Felix Kaweesi, among others.<\/p>\n<p><b>ALSO READ:<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Unsolved killings put spotlight on Uganda the security state<\/p>\n<p>The CID spokesperson, Mr Charles Twine, declined to discuss the contents of the report. He instead appeared to question the competence of the office of the Auditor General when it comes to evaluating the police\u2019s work.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat does the Auditor General have to do with a backlog of cases? The AG does not look at the quality assurance of investigations,\u201d he told Saturday Monitor.<\/p>\n<p>Former Inspector General of Police Julius Odwe, currently working as a senior consultant on security and governance, attributes the backlog of uninvestigated cases to failure by the Force to respond to crime reports in good time.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy 16 years of experience in CID [teaches one] that investigations should be graded with fast tracking that starts from any point of criminal contamination\u2014the victim, suspect, witnesses, scene-of-crime, exhibits, use of dogs, the eye bold intelligence and even hearsay. Without shielding the CID, all public institutions record failures, but the failures must be corrected in good time,\u201d Mr Odwe told Saturday Monitor.<\/p>\n<p><b>Inadequate manpower and funding<\/b><\/p>\n<p>A senior police officer at the level of an AIGP, who talked to Saturday Monitor on condition of anonymity, disagreed with Mr Odwe.<\/p>\n<p><b>ALSO READ:<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Gen Katumba shooting: Unresolved high-profile murder cases<\/p>\n<p>The officer said the Force\u2019s challenges are well known and have been documented in several crime reports.<\/p>\n<p>The Police Crime Report for 2018, for instance, lists, among others, inadequate financing and lack of manpower as some of the causes of the case backlog.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe current strength of CID personnel is only 5,292 instead of the approved 19,843, leading to work overload,\u201d the report reads in part.<\/p>\n<p>The report further points out that whereas the United Nations puts the ratio of investigators to cases at one for every 12 cases per year, the number of available detectives means each detective handles at least 45 cases per year, while detectives in Kampala Metropolitan area handle anywhere between 50 and 70 cases.<\/p>\n<p>On January 18, Mr Aggrey Wwunyi, the secretary of the Police Authority, appealed to members of the parliamentary Committee on Defence and Internal Affairs to cause an upward review of the police budget for the Financial Year 2022\/2023.<\/p>\n<p>He held that allocations to the Force were not helping it cope with the level of investigations required to wipe out crime.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe CID requires Shs2.1m on average to investigate a capital offence. This means of the 40,000 capital offences, CID requires an average Shs84b to facilitate quality investigations,\u201d Mr Wwunyi told MPs.<\/p>\n<p><b>ALSO READ:<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Concern as 68 people are killed in one week<\/p>\n<p>The senior officer says besides lack of finances, the CID has failed to replicate a crime information management system. The CID has also pulled up short on when it comes to case conferencing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe crime information management system would help you know who is investigating which case, how long an officer has stayed on it and what is required. So it would be very easy to monitor and keep track of these investigations and demand answers as to why a detective has many more cases he is working on compared to his colleagues,\u201d the officer said.<\/p>\n<p><b>Other issues in the report<\/b><\/p>\n<p>The report also illuminated deficits in the police\u2019s canine services, saying they only covers 68 out of the country\u2019s 157 policing districts (43 percent).<\/p>\n<p>It also points out that this is affecting the extent of canine-related investigations and service delivery in the areas not yet covered.<\/p>\n<p>Other queries raised in the Auditor General\u2019s report include lack of a budget to facilitate the maintenance of closed circuit televisions (CCTV) cameras.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAlthough Uganda Police has completed Phase 1 and 2 of the project for the installation of CCTV cameras, I observed that the Force does not have a budget for the maintenance of the installed camera infrastructure,\u201d the report states.<\/p>\n<p>It also raised issues with the police\u2019s failure to collect Shs29.98b that it should have collected from express penalty tickets issued between the financial years 2015\/2016 and 2020\/2021.<\/p>\n<p>The report points out that whereas tickets worth Shs120.8b had been issued, only Shs90b had been collected.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/uganda\">Uganda<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Uganda.
