Message: [QUOTE="Nehanda, post: 27140, member: 2262"] People from the Muramba area of the Bugoya sub-county, Kasese district, dealt harshly with coffee thieves recently. They killed one suspect and burned a motorcycle completely. Police collected the stolen goods afterward and warned both criminals and regular citizens about proper legal procedures. The problem began when locals caught two individuals stealing coffee beans from farms. They attacked a young man around twenty-five years old and beat him until he died after discovering half a sack of coffee with him. Another thief escaped on foot when confronted. He abandoned his motorcycle labeled UFN 113P along with stolen coffee. The angry crowd burned his motorcycle right there at Muramba One Zone. According to police reports, many residents actively hunted these thieves throughout that day. Officers later found another motorcycle marked UFB 298M hidden inside a banana plantation near Ndugutu village. The police gathered three half-sacks of stolen coffee, both motorcycles and additional evidence. Everything was returned to Kasese police headquarters for a thorough investigation. Police spokesperson Rusoke Kituuma discussed these events during a press briefing. He expressed regret about the killing because it hampered police investigations. Had they arrested that person alive, they might have learned valuable information about local theft patterns. Nevertheless, he acknowledged why community members felt frustrated about constant losses. Kituuma mentioned how this violence clearly shows thieves what might happen. He explained that residents demonstrate their anger toward theft and readiness to attack anyone caught stealing. The officer cautioned criminals against taking crops or animals because rules have changed dramatically. Anyone arrested faces strict handling without easy release options. The spokesperson emphasized different treatment for thieves going forward. He stated suspects cannot expect bail from the police anymore. His department aims to process all theft cases straight through court systems without delays. Kituuma emphasized criminals should forget about manipulating the system through connections or technicalities from this point forward. [/QUOTE]
