Ndiga clan head killing: Prime murder suspect asks court to free 4 co-accused

The self-confessed key murder suspect of the Ndiga Clan leader has asked court to release four co-accused saying they are “innocent.”

On Thursday, Lujja Bbosa Tabula, who has since admitted to the murder of Eng Daniel Bbosa, told court presided by Mwanga II Magistrate Adam Byaruhanga that authorities should only keep him and his nephew Noah Lujja in custody.

The four suspects who Tabula seeks to be released include Harriet Nakiguli, 40, Joseph Nakabale, 47, Ezra Mayanja, 44, and Buganda Kingdom’s 46-year-old tradition court clerk Milly Naluwenda.

"These are just my relatives who do not know anything. It is not right and fair to keep them on remand yet I am ready to carry my own cross," Lujja remarked.

But prosecution led by Caroline Mpumwire objected, reasoning that they are about to commit the accused to High Court for trial.
