SV: {UAH} Lugogo murder probe hits snag-there you go. does that girl look like in jail or a suspect?

Muko BARIGYE, and UAH folks,

I had talked my elderly minds out, but my brothers Okurut and Okello DOKOLO etal are thinking Ocaya is sick! Sad as it is, when one is brutally murdered in any country in the world, always the powerful would come in full force for the goodness or for the worse!

WELL, when I suggested that Mky Winnie Byanyima is the only mature person in this situation, some of my brothers and sisters have another thinking that is, punishment, death sentence and other hard laws I do not know it. There must be true thinking for reconciliation than being dogmatic when dealing with this kind of situation!

 

Ocaya pOcure

Akena death mystery: Where is Kanyamunyu's lover Cynthia, and what's her mission in Kampala?

As we unravel the mystery of the unfortunate death of Kenneth Akena, a social worker with AVSI charity in Kitgum, today we zero in on Cynthia Munwangari, a movie like character in the whole Lugogo Mall shooting puzzle.

Cynthia, the girl who was in the car with now number one murder suspect Matthew Kanyamunyu on Sunday evening, is also a subject of security scrutiny, and possibly could further explain what exactly happened. However, there are forces that pin Kanyamunyu, but, leave Cynthia out as a silent bystander on the murder scene(s).

Clearly, Cynthia has a lot to answer, as she was the number one witness to whatever took place and possibly, offered a lot of help in attempts to save the late Akena for over nine hours.

In our investigations, Cynthia is an interesting subject that opens more criminal activities, right from the time she left the bloodletting city of Bujumbura, through Kigali to Kampala.

Without giving away so much information that would jeopardize the investigations, this website understands there is a grain of truth in Mr Kanyamunyu's allegation that assassins were after Cynthia's life.  We however strongly believe what he and his girlfriend feared were kidnappers, who however could become violent, and thus Kanyamunyu prepared himself for the worst scenario in his efforts to protect the Burundian beauty.

Many people ask, who is Cynthia to be hunted down by assassins as Matthew would allege, or, it is a cover up to the murder? And who are these assassins? For it is a known fact that Burundi cannot sponsor assassinations in Kampala as it would jeopardize good will of the relations with the Kampala regime.

Our investigators are however concerned that Cynthia Munwangari who rightly admits she is Burundi national, however her travel documents show she is Rwandan. We are also being told Matthew Kanyamunyu was in the cells, but, we are but we are not being told where Cynthia is. It is not possible Matthew is being her alone as if he is already convicted, he was with another suspect called Cynthia. Where is she?

Cynthia filled an interstate pass belonging to the Republic of Rwanda as she left Kigali International Airport on 19. November 2015 saying, she was Rwandan. On the pass, Ms Munwangari said her nationality was Rwandan. She also provided her Identity Number as 1199070228213005. Cynthia landed in Entebbe on the same day and fast started socializing with her high connections in Kampala.

It remains to be understood how Cynthia a Burundian acquired a Rwandan ID.

Cynthia is a high class girl whose father is a renowned businessman in Bujumbura according to our sources, and a strong supporter of Burundi president, Pierre Nkurunziza. His father and her siblings live in Ngagara.

Our sources add that the late Hafsa Mossi who was shot dead was not even Cynthia's aunt as peddled around. And even if she was, that would not put Cynthia's life in trouble if she was not connected to anything political.

It leaves Cynthia's being in danger for one thing – she had a political assignment on her hands that was possibly going out of control.

Kanyamunyu assigned himself a movie-like role of Terminator to save the beauty from the underworld.

Why did Cynthia leave Bujumbura for Kigali, get a Rwandan nationality, and then, come to Uganda? What was Cynthia's mission in Kampala? Why did she end up in Matthew's hands and then declare she was feeling insecure, warranting psychotic level protection from her boyfriend?

There are two scenarios here.

One, "Bujumbura did offer much for her fashion and high end pleasure business," says a government source in Bujumbura.

The credible source adds that Cynthia is into fashion business, from where she interacted and dated wealthy and powerful men.

He says that is why she could leave Bujumbura, live in Kigali, and had connections in Kampala.

A journalist she had met earlier had assured her the world of glamour and strong business links. However, he also had other plans for her.

The school of thought says, Cynthia was inducted into espionage but wanted out with the help of Kanyamunyu who wanted to settle down with her.

With her satanic beauty and fashion sense, the intelligence community of some East African country had wanted to use her for high profile intelligence gigs.

However, according to our deep throat, the process would be halted if Kanyamunyu turned her into a wife of sorts.

Kanyamunyu was willing to give her another life of a princess using his recently acquired wealth as a CEO and shareholder in Quantum Logistics which had won a million dollar contract from United Nations.

The forces behind Cynthia had assured her that she either stuck to plan or face the consequences.

Our investigator says that is why Kanyamunyu's version is plausible. And that was why police have failed to produce him to court since he would give away unwanted information.

Why are they afraid to present him to court? Who else is pulling the strings apart from the powerful Kanyamunyu family? If Matthew is put in the dock, what other information about the Cynthia and her associates that would come out and it is not good for public consumption?

Friends of Matthew Kanyamunyu say he had of recent become psychotic about the whole thing of exposing or losing the girl.  He would not drive with her openly to hotels as he would have wanted. And he was damn sure it was his job to protect her or lose her to the intelligence world which had work for her to do.

Lugogo murder probe hits snag

Foreign forensic experts to join Lugogo shooting investigation 

Preliminary investigations into the fatal shooting at a shopping mall in Lugogo have thrown up more questions than answers, complicating efforts by detectives to pin the culprits and in the process calm the political and ethnic undertones underpinning this incident.

Yesterday, the police spokesman for Kampala Metropolitan, Emilian Kayima, told The Observer that the force had put some of its best brains on the case.

"A team of senior detectives from Kampala Metropolitan have been selected to handle this shooting and have to look into various things," he said.

However, according to Kayima and other sources who asked not to be named in order to speak freely on the contentious issue, those officers have so far failed to crack the puzzle.

For instance, Kayima pointed out, since the gun which is the major exhibit is still missing, forensic experts will be used to determine the gun basing on the bullets that were recovered from the deceased's body.

"Did the assailants use a silence gun or normal pistols?" he asked.

On Saturday night, city businessman Matthew Kanyamunyu, the chief executive of Quantum Express and Logistics, allegedly shot Kenneth Akena after the deceased brushed his car. Akena, a community development officer based in Kasese district, later died at Norvik hospital along Bombo road.

Kanyamunyu, who took Akena to hospital, says he was only a good Samaritan helping a victim of a stray bullet that could have been meant for his girlfriend Cynthia Munwangari, who hails from Burundi.

Akena's brother told police that shortly before he died, the deceased revealed that Kanyamunyu had shot him before driving him to hospital. Although Kanyamunyu was arrested to help with investigations, he says he does not own a gun. His assertions have complicated police investigations, with the force now needing its own proof.

Our insiders within the force say the police will need highly-trained forensic experts to determine the type of gun used to kill Akena since none has been recovered.

"Basing on the bullets which were found in the deceased's body the experts can tell which type of gun was used to shoot," said a reliable source in the police.

He added that after identifying the gun, detectives can trace who owns the gun in the records. The source, however, added that people with such expertise have to be hired from either South Africa or Kenya.

SCENE OF CRIME

There is also no conclusive evidence yet on the particular place where the crime was committed. So far, some leads have pointed at the parking lot at Forest mall, but it has also been suggested that it was near the Game store or near the Rugby club.

"We are not yet sure where exactly Akena was shot, which is still a big challenge in investigations," he said. "Some people say Akena was shot at Rugby club while others say he was shot at Game; so, we are not yet sure of the right scene of crime."

Kayima said the investigators must establish the exact scene of crime where the deceased was shot, but with no trace of blood at any of the three places, this important piece of information remains elusive.

The lack of blood at all three suspected scenes of crime has baffled investigators.

"If Akena was shot at Game, police would have found some blood flowing because if you are shot, you cannot fail to bleed," said Kayima.
"We still doubt if Akena was shot at Game or if he was shot at another place and brought to Game," he said, adding that investigations will establish the truth.

Kayima also said nobody has come up to say that the shooting took place at Game.

"The time the deceased was shot, it was still early and people could have seen Kanyamunyu shooting or a sound could have been heard," he said.

FURTHER INVESTIGATIONS

Kayima added that even the security guards at Game did not see or hear any gunshots. He, however, added the police would ask the management of Game to provide CCTV footage, which should help with further investigations.

Kayima also said that the police are looking into the identity of the girl in Kanyamunyu's company.

"The family of the girl had a shooting history. Her mother was attacked and shot; so, there is a possibility that the assailants targeted the girl," said Kayima.

SUSPECTS AT POLICE

Kanyamunyu and Munwangari are still under custody at Jinja Road police station, as detectives continue to investigate.

Yesterday, they received a number of visitors who included human rights lawyer Nicholas Opiyo, the proprietor of The Independent magazine Andrew Mwenda, criminal lawyer Macdosman Kabega, and another lawyer Elison Karuhanga.

The suspects chatted casually with their visitors, sometimes even managing smiles between them. Police yesterday said they intend to subject Kanyamunyu to a medical examination to ascertain his mental state, a routine procedure for murder suspects.
