{UAH} The embarrassing ASP Kirumira katemba
There was drama inside court as police prosecutor Katherine Kusemererwa and Godence Ovura, the Court Orderly, failed to present evidence on the charge of "scandalous conduct" against Kirumira which he allegedly committed when he stormed out of the court last week.
"Mr Kirumira exhibited scandalous manner while in this court on February 13 when he tried to attack you Mr Chairman and also injured ACP Ovura," Ms Kusemererwa said.
However, Mr Kirumira interjected asking Mr Odongpiny whether he was not contradicting himself to try a case in which he is the complainant.
Mr Odongpiny quickly denied having ever been attacked by the accused officer.
"I would also request ACP Ovura to present medical evidence that satisfies the injuries I caused on him. Also, I seek to understand whether it is in order SSP Kusemererwa to be a prosecutor in a case in which she is the witness," Mr Kirumira said.
Mr Odongpiny said Mr Kirumira had raised genuine concerns and asked Ms Kusemererwa to step aside as a prosecutor in the charge of "scandalous conduct."
She was replaced by Mr Steven Ojara but the case could not proceed as he failed to avail evidence.
Earlier in the day, police officers guarding the court building clobbered two Bukedde journalists, Ponsiano Nsimbe and Mr Suleiman Mutebi for filming the arrival and trial of Mr Kirumira.
However, Mr Odongpiny insisted no journalist had been beaten despite available pictures and videos of officers running after the pressmen and whipping them.
