Molly Katanga went back to court on March 11, 2025. Her trial started again after many delays because of planning problems. Judge Rosette Comfort Kania heard the case, which keeps grabbing public interest due to all the fighting over what counts as proof. The case deals with her possible role in her husband Henry's death back in 2023.
Molly has stayed locked up at Luzira Prison since the police first arrested her. When Henry died, someone found her knocked out at their Kampala home with really bad injuries that left her unable to move. Her lawyers keep telling everyone how hurt she was, making people wonder if she could have done what the police say she did.
Cops tried using tech stuff as proof against her. Police tech guy Enock Kanene said they took 19 electronic things from the Katanga house. He admitted they couldn't get data from 10 of those things because of tech problems, which makes some folks question how well the police did their job. One device tied to an email address had 13 pictures showing bloody floors, a selfie with blood on a shirt, and three short videos from the morning Henry died.
Assistant Commissioner Andrew Mubiru wrote a report last November saying all blood samples from the bedroom floor matched Molly's blood, not Henry's. This suggests Molly lost lots of blood there herself. Her defense team argues strongly against using this evidence, claiming police collected and handled it wrong. They point out many mistakes in how officers gathered and tested everything.
Molly came to court straight from prison after a judge refused to let her out on bail for the third time just two weeks ago. The case continues to move forward as both sides present their versions of what happened that November day.
