Africa-Press – Uganda. <\/strong><\/span>A clerk attached to Kaberamaido magistrates\u2019 court in Kaberamaido District has been remanded to Soroti government prison over alleged theft of court documents.<\/b><\/p>\n

Kaberamaido magistrates’ court clerk Alex Eluka, together with his other colleague Elvis Alele appeared before grade 1 magistrate Apollo Kasujja Kibirige who remanded them to prison until February 2024 when they will resurface for mention of charges in line with theft of court exhibits.<\/p>\n

On Wednesday, the accused asked the magistrate not to remand them to Kaberamaido government prison for \u201cfear of torture from inmates previously sentenced by the same court.\u201d<\/p>\n

The two suspects were last Saturday arrested from Akaidebe Village in Dokolo District (Lango Sub-region) where they were hiding since last year when they allegedly committed the crime.<\/p>\n

“You and others still at large are said to have stolen exhibits from the court store,\u201d the magistrate told the suspects.<\/p>\n

Last week, Kaberamaido District Police Commander David Otabong said that the suspects were tracked down using one of the exhibit phones that went missing from the store,<\/p>\n

\u201cThe suspects stole motorcycles, smartphones and containers of fuel among other items that are yet to be documented,\u201d according to police.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe stolen exhibits were samples of evidence for matters before court. Those matters have been halted pending recovery of the lost items,\u201d Otabong told.<\/p>\n
