A 24 year old resident of Soweto village, Kakutu Sub County in Kibuku district has been lynched by angry residents in the wee hours of Wednesday morning, 2nd October, 2024 after he was found carrying a cow and goat on a motorcycle suspected to have been stolen.
According to Samuel Semewo, the Bukedi South police spokesperson, Mubakali Mulabi was found driving a motorcycle number UFJ 583J BAJAJ BOXER carrying a goat and a cow.
He says locals intercepted him and asked him for the movement permits of the animals and where he was taking them but he failed to answer prompting the mob that had gathered around him to lynch him.
“After he was killed, locals left the body alongside the road with the cow and goat as exhibits and police came in and took away the body,” says Semewo.
By press time, the body had been taken to Kibuku health center 4 for postmortem as investigations continue.
