Africa-Press – Uganda. <\/strong><\/span>Residents of Nalufenya Road in Jinja City on Saturday discovered a decomposing body hanging on a tree behind an unoccupied house which local leaders said belongs to former Busoga Kindgom’s Premier, Mr Wilson Muwereza.<\/p>\n

The area LC1 chairperson, Mr Hamuza Badhaga, said he received information from a resident that there was a body hanging on a guava tree behind an unoccupied building.<\/p>\n

\u201cI managed to go to the scene and saw the body through the fence of the neighbour (Bilkon Hotel) and informed police which came and took it to Jinja Regional Referral Hospital mortuary,\u201d Mr Badhaga said.<\/p>\n

Mr Badhaga added that the deceased, whose body was in its early stages of decomposition, had no identification, but said the house belongs to the former Busoga Kingdom Prime Minister, Mr Wilson Muwereza.<\/p>\n

He, however, said nobody stays in the house, but will follow up the matter with his security team and police.<\/p>\n

Mr Abdallah Kigongo, a boda boda rider who operates within the area, said the house was deserted due to family wrangles.<\/p>\n

Relatedly, police in Jinja City have picked up the body of an unidentified man who is suspected to have been a victim of mob justice.<\/p>\n

The man who onlookers suspected to have been a thief, was found around Dam Waters Rugby playground and taken to Jinja Regional Referral Hospital mortuary.<\/p>\n

Last week, five unclaimed bodies, said to have been victims of road crashes and mob justice were buried in mass graves at the Jinja City cemetery located at Mailo Mbili roundabout, along the Jinja-Iganga highway.<\/p>\n

By the time of filing this story, efforts to speak to the Kiira region Police Spokesperson, Mr James Mubi, were futile across all his known telephone numbers.<\/p>\n
