A 33-year-old woman has been charged and remanded to Luzira prison over posing as a Uganda Communications Commission (UCC) engineer, prior to defrauding a born-again church off Shs700million.
On Thursday, Kampala businesswoman Ritah Namalwa was arraigned before grade one magistrate Andrew Katurubuki at the Nakawa Chief Magistrate’s Court.
Court read to her four charges of theft, personation, forgery and uttering false documents, which she denied.
“You are hereby remanded until September 21 when you will appear before trial chief magistrate Erias Kakooza, who is currently indisposed,” Katurubuki said.
According to the charge sheet, it is alleged that Namalwa and others still at large between 2020 and 2024 in Kampala’s Nakawa Division stole $86,000 and Shs374 million, a property of Dunamis Media and Prayer Palace ministry.
