Police grabbed two men after they attacked a campaign worker and destroyed political posters. The troublemakers targeted materials supporting Henry Musasizi, who serves as a government minister and wants to keep his parliament seat. Officers arrested Ndamwesiga Bruno and Ainebyona Isaac from Kabugu Village after separate violent incidents. Regional police chief Elly Maate confirmed both men face serious charges. The attacks happened just days apart and shocked the local community.
Danavence Tumwebaze works as a campaign agent for the minister and suffered through both scary encounters. The 68-year-old woman watched Ainebyona storm into her house and rip down campaign posters from her walls. He smashed dishes on her table and kicked her before running away. Earlier that week, both suspects had thrown rocks at her roof and threatened to burn her alive. They promised to return and remove all political materials supporting the minister.
District Police Commander Barugahare Abel Kyooto led the operation that captured both suspects. Officers moved quickly after Tumwebaze reported the violent incidents to local authorities. The men remain locked up as detectives continue gathering evidence against them. Police plan to bring them before a judge very soon. Law enforcement officials condemned the attacks and promised to protect peaceful campaigning during election season.
