In one of the village meetings, the wife confessed that Omachar was not the father of the three children they were having,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Francis Olweny, the district councillor representing Magodes town council condemned the incident saying it is against Iteso cultural norms and the laws of Uganda.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The deceased was never chaotic. Even after his wife disowned him as a father of the children, he never reacted badly,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>The Bukedi regional police spokesperson, Mr Moses Mugwe said Thursday that a case file of murder has been opened against Imodia and her alleged boyfriend.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe found when the locals had pounced on the two suspects and wanted to lynch them. We rescued them and are currently being detained at Tororo Central Police Station as investigations into the matter continue,\u201d he said.<\/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.
