Word on the desk is that a Chief Magistrate was behind the steering wheel of a Toyota Rav4 registration number UAS 597U that allegedly knocked and instantly caused the death of traffic Police Constable Innocent Ayesigye in Seeta on Sunday, May 24.
The source reveals that the Chief Magistrate appeared at the Naguru police headquarters on Wednesday, May, 27 afternoon to discuss the matter of the untimely death of Ayesigye’s death.
By press time, details of what had been resolved between police leadership and the judicial officer were still scanty.
After the accident that occurred on Sunday, police released a closed Circuit Television (CCTV) footage and a picture taken by an on looker-on showing occupants in the Rav4 guarded by a police officer in a Khaki police uniform driving off the scene as Ayesigye laboured to breath.
Ayesiga was later reported dead on Tuesday, May, 26. At the time of his death, Mr Ayesigye was attached to Seeta police station.
The Police had earlier on released controversial reports claiming that they had arrested the errant driver of the Rav4.
