A Ugandan cleric met his tragic end at the hands of irate villagers after being found near a murder scene.
Pastor Julius Mugisa is believed to have been in the company of the assailants who killed Tobias Komunda at his home in Igogonya village on Friday, December 16.
The suspected assailants had travelled to their victim’s home using a vehicle whose number plate remains unknown.
“It’s alleged that a group of five unknown people travelling in a white vehicle with an unknown registration plate went to the home of the deceased (Komunda) at around 5:00 pm. They all went behind the house of Komunda where they spent about 30 minutes haggling.
They developed a misunderstanding before Komunda told them to leave his home. He (Komunda) attempted to pelt them with a stone but he was shot in the head and died,” an eyewitness told the police.
After the murder, the suspects fled the scene while aboard the vehicle, leaving Mugisa behind.
His attempts to follow suit boomeranged after the angry residents blocked his way before descending on him.
“The pastor fled from the scene but he had already been identified by the residents who were responding to the gunshots. He was attacked and beaten by a large number of angry residents who overpowered the area police officers who tried to rescue him,” another eye-witness said.
