Police officers deputy police spokesperson Patrick Onyango and former Kampala South Regional Police Commander Siraje Bakaleke.

Weeks ago, Onyango survived suspected assassins in Kireka  but he and the police force insisted it was a minor incident.

Bakaleke, battling fraud charges, has also previously reported receiving death threats. And so has Kamya, Lukwago, Karuhanga and Munyagwa.
