Prison doctors say Abdul Noor Ssemujju lied about torture during his court appearance. The cop faces murder charges for killing prosecutor Joan Kagezi back in 2015. Ssemujju told the judge that guards beat him badly after his arrest. He claimed nobody gave him proper medical care except fellow prisoners who shared painkillers. The suspect said he never saw any real doctors during his time behind bars.

Court officials produced a medical report that contradicted his torture claims completely. The government lawyer said Ssemujju showed no physical signs of beatings or abuse. Prison medical officer Kajoba Charles Kimuli had examined the suspect properly according to official records. The prosecutor accused Ssemujju of trying to blackmail the prison doctor with false stories. Court documents showed that Ssemujju received adequate medical attention from qualified staff members.

Ssemujju stuck to his story about the abuse despite the medical evidence against him. He told the magistrate that guards forced him to blame Rwanda President Kagame for the murder. The suspect also claimed officers made him accuse former police chief Kayihura of ordering the killing. His co-defendant Nickson Agasirwe appeared alongside him during the court session. The Kagezi murder case remains unsolved after ten years of investigations.
