Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 78932, member: 636"] Ugandan prosecutors claim a former top cop ordered a hit on a state lawyer because she was coming after him. They told a court that Nickson Agasirwe had prosecutor Joan Kagezi killed in 2015 to stop her from filing criminal cases against him for violent crimes. Kagezi had openly expressed fear for her life, specifically naming Agasirwe as a threat, before she was shot dead near her home. The state says Agasirwe, who led a special police unit, paid for the assassination, provided weapons, and tracked Kagezi's movements. They allege he then sabotaged the murder investigation by stealing files and interfering with evidence. A hitman who took a plea deal testified that Agasirwe paid roughly two hundred thousand dollars for the job. The case has now moved to a higher court for trial. [/QUOTE]
