Masaka Serial Murder Suspect Kamugisha Committed to High Court as Co-Accused Is Cleared
The Masaka Chief Magistrate's Court has committed Kamugisha Kuraish, a suspected serial killer who previously confessed to several murders in the Greater Masaka region, to the High Court for trial, while his co-accused, Kyambadde Huzair, has been cleared of all charges. At about 3:00pm, Kamugisha, also known as Fred Mujulizi, appeared before court alongside Kyambadde. The two participated in the proceedings virtually via Zoom from Luzira Prison. Prosecutor Abraham Akandranaho informed the court that the charges against the two suspects had been amended. All charges against Kyambadde were withdrawn, while three charges against Kamugisha were dropped, leaving him facing one count of murder.
