Africa-Press – Uganda. <\/strong><\/span>Last Thursday, relatives of Monica Nabukenya, 25, received communication from her, unaware that it would be their final contact.<\/p>\n

However, two days later, Raed Wated, Nabukenya\u2019s 58-year-old husband, reported her disappearance at Kayabwe Police Station, allegedly intending to divert the investigation.<\/p>\n

But as fate would have it , Nabukenya\u2019s relatives, who had also received reports of her \u2018disappearance\u2019, arrived at the same police station, asserting that Wated knew of her whereabouts.<\/p>\n

This prompted detectives together with Wated and his in-laws to visit the couple\u2019s home in Kalagala Village, Kayabwe Town Council, Mpigi District on Monday evening .<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen we entered the gate, a foul smell welcomed us and it is at this point that the man revealed to detectives that he had actually killed my sister after a DNA test proved that he is not the biological father of the baby girl ,\u201d Ms Royce Nayiga, the deceased\u2019s sister, says.<\/p>\n

Wated later led detectives to a septic tank in the compound where he had dumped Nabukenya\u2019s body.<\/p>\n

Ms Nayiga says Nabukenya had earlier disclosed to them that she had misunderstandings with Wated over the paternity of their six-month-old baby and when she was reported missing, they sensed something was amiss.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe thought they would resolve their issues as wife and husband but we were shocked to receive information that he had killed her ,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n

Mr Richard Ddumba, the chairperson of Kalagala Village, Kayabwe Town Council and also a neighbour of the couple, says both Wated and Nabukenya lived a private life until recently when disagreements arose.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat I know, the couple had one baby, when the man received information that the baby belonged to another man , he took the child for DNA which proved that he is not the real father,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n

Mr Ddumba says a distressed Wated approached him four months ago, saying he was pushing for divorce .<\/p>\n

\u201cAs he was trying to secure divorce, I got shocked to learn that he had instead chosen to kill the wife,\u201d he says<\/p>\n

Nabukenya\u2019s body, according to Ddumba, was naked and had started to decompose .<\/p>\n

Ms Jesca Nabisubi, another neighbour, says the wife had opted to leave her husband\u2019s house and stayed with relatives in Kayabwe Town .<\/p>\n

\u201cBut last Thursday, I was surprised to see her at their home together with the baby and I learnt later that the husband had invited her to resolve their differences as a couple ,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n

Ms Nabisubi says the deceased always moved with her baby and was surprised to see the suspect carrying the child last Thursday.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo, later on Friday when I saw the husband feeding the baby, I got suspicious because it was the woman always carrying the baby,\u201d Nabisubi explains<\/p>\n

According to Nabisubi, the victim was running a supermarket that Wated established for her.<\/p>\n

Mr Stephen Mwogezi, the village defence secretary, says the suspect became a resident a decade ago after buying a plot of land where he constructed a house.<\/p>\n

\u201cUnlike many foreigners who keep renting apartments, that man bought a plot and built a house . He later married that woman and were staying together, previously they had a helper, but had left the home by the time of the incident,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n

Mr Dauda Hirigi Were, the Katonga Regional Police commander, says the suspect was yesterday taken to the his home to reconstruct the scene . The suspect was also yet to record an extra-judicial statement.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe confessed that he killed the wife because what she did to sire a child with another man is an abomination in their culture ,\u201d he says,<\/p>\n

Mr Were says preliminary investigations had revealed that Nabukenya had two children prior to marrying Raed .<\/p>\n

The suspect is an Israeli national who worked as a manager at a machinery workshop.<\/p>\n
