A police officer faces charges after authorities say he stole building supplies worth millions of shillings. Superintendent Avito Begira works as a human resource officer for Wamala Region police. He lives in Lunya Zone and appeared before Makindye Chief Magistrate's court. The officer denied taking any construction materials. Magistrate Igga Adiru ordered him held until June 19 as the case moves forward.

Police say Begira took 380 iron sheets and 250 poles from a construction site. He also grabbed 15 cement bags and various tools like hammers and saws. The stolen items belonged to Kato Bumali and were worth about 16.6 million shillings. Officers from the State House Anti-Corruption Unit made the arrest. The incident happened at Kanaaba Zone in February 2023.

Kato filed a complaint saying Begira hired people to remove his building materials. The two men have been fighting over land rights in Ndejje area. Investigators claim Begira used other police officers to help take the supplies. His supervisors called him several times to answer questions about the theft. The officer never showed up to explain his actions.
