Authorities have begun probing claims that security forces attacked retired police chief John Ndungutse at vote-counting facilities. The former Assistant Inspector General faced aggression from officers while attempting to enter the Kanungu district headquarters on July 18, 2025. Ndungutse had recently suffered defeat against incumbent James Kaberuka during National Resistance Movement primary elections for Kinkiizi West County representation. The confrontation occurred around 11:10 AM as electoral officials prepared to announce results. Witnesses report that Lieutenant Patrick Zirimo initiated physical contact after challenging the retired officer.

Multiple personnel reportedly joined the altercation after Ndungutse questioned their authority. The accused soldier allegedly struck the former police chief multiple times and destroyed personal property valued at approximately 620,000 shillings. Major Kiconco Tabaro acknowledged that military leadership has launched formal inquiries regarding the incident. Police documentation shows case number CRB 440/2025 remains active at the local station. Officials have yet to make arrests despite mounting pressure for accountability measures.
