Police Constable Steven Mulombo has been dismissed from the force due to negligence over his gun which was used by PC Wabwire on May 12th to kill an Indian money lender Uttam at the Raja Chambers along parliamentary avenue.
According to police spokesperson- Fred Enanga, if PC. Mulombo hadn’t left his gun unattended to, the killing could have been avoided. Mr. Enanga announced that PC. Mulombo is now a civilian and is going to be taken to the criminal court for negligence of duties as a civilian.
“Our policy on the use of firearms demands that PC Mulombo should have returned the gun to the armory before moving out of the station. But without lawful permission, he sneaked out of the station to attend to a personal matter, which is an outright case of gross indiscipline and negligence,” he said.
“As a result, he has been charged in the disciplinary court with discreditable conduct and has been dismissed from the Force this morning,” he added.
PC Wabwire was yesterday presented at Buganda Road Court to record an extrajudicial statement following his arrest on Sunday.
