The suspects (Mr Kanyamunyu, 39, was jointly charged of killing child rights activist Kenneth Akena with his girlfriend Cynthia Munangwari, and his elder brother Joseph Kanyamunyu) appeared before Nakawa Magistrates Court for the mention of their case on Tuesday morning.
State Attorney Racheal Nabwire informed court that investigations into the case were still incomplete, seeking adjournment.The state simply told court: “This matter is coming up for hearing and the inquiries are still going on.”
The trial magistrate Noah Sajjabi rejected the suspects’ bail application after just two minutes of being in court and further remanded the suspects to Luzira Maximum Security Prison until early next year when they will reappear for mention of their case.
