Africa-Press<\/a> – Uganda<\/a>. <\/strong><\/span>Police in Bushenyi District are investigating the death of a presenter at a local radio station who was allegedly stabbed by his girlfriend.<\/p>\n

Police said Allan Mandela, 26, also known as Sports King Mateeka, a sports presenter at Hunter Radio in Rwentuha Town Council, Igara East, Bushenyi District, was yesterday morning found lying in a pool of blood.<\/p>\n

The greater Bushenyi regional police spokesperson, Mr Martial Tumusiime, said they have arrested the suspect to help with investigations.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe suspect was arrested from the scene. She had locked herself inside the room of the deceased,\u201d Mr Tumusiime said. He said the suspect has been a longtime lover of the deceased and that they had reportedly separated but recently reunited.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo this lady moved to Mandela\u2019s place where they spent the night together. This morning, the suspect called me and said they will be killed after she had stabbed her boyfriend. She used sharp object to cut Mandela on the head,\u201dMr Tumusiime revealed.<\/p>\n

Mr Tumusiime added that the suspect is a staff at BFM radio in Ishaka, Bushenyi Municipality.<\/p>\n

\u201cFellow staff tried to break into the room and find out what had happened but I had called police. They found Mateeka had been murdered,\u201dMr Tusiime said.<\/p>\n

He said the suspect is detained at Bushenyi Central Police Station and that the body has been taken to Bushenyi Health Centre IV for postmortem.<\/p>\n

Mr Rogers Akandwanaho, the Hunter FM station manager, said the two have been in a relationship for almost two and half years but had separated.<\/p>\n

\u201cI stopped them from bringing girls into their rooms around the workplace. How the suspect came in last night is something I don\u2019t know. We only had noise towards the morning, she tried to escape but my staff stopped her and she locked herself inside. We called police that came and arrested her,\u201d Mr Akandwanaho said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
