Police Investigate Attack on Musician Alien Skin's Home.
Police in Kampala are looking into a serious case. They say musician Pallaso and his group attacked the home of another artist, Alien Skin. This happened on January 2, 2025, in the Makindye area of Kampala.
The police think the attack started because of a fight between Alien Skin and Pallaso. They had argued while performing at a show in Wakiso District.
Pallaso and his group came to Alien Skin's house two times that day. The first time was at 3:00 am. They had weapons like pangas and hammers. Police officers made them leave.
But the group came back around 9:00 am. This time, they did a lot more damage. They burned Alien Skin's Range Rover. They broke the windows of four other cars. They also smashed windows on three houses. The attackers stole six million Ugandan shillings in cash.
Three people were hurt in the attacks. Alien Skin was one of them. Two of the injured people are being treated at a hospital.
Police believe the problems started on New Year's Eve. Alien Skin's group tried to stop Pallaso from performing at a festival. There was a big fight, and security had to fire guns in the air to stop it.
People think the clash began because Pallaso said some bad things about Alien Skin. Earlier, Alien's group tried to force their way on stage at the wrong time. Bouncers stopped them, and that's when the violence started.
Alien Skin was also accused of damaging a political party's headquarters in December 2024. The party said Alien Skin and his friends threatened a security guard. They wrote insulting messages on the building.
These violent events have gotten a lot of attention in Uganda. People are worried about fights between famous musicians. They want the police to do something to stop more violence from happening.
The public thinks the government should make stricter rules to prevent more fighting in the music industry. They are asking for quick action to deal with this problem.
