In Kampala—

The Judiciary has deployed 10 newly appointed Judicial Officers at the rank of Registrars and Magistrates to different stations in the country in a bid to take services closer to people.

The changes have also seen a few magistrates transferred; in the new deployments, Bubulo and Kyenjojo courts get their first substantive Chief Magistrates since inception.

The changes have also seen Magistrate Grade One, Lydia Kambedha, being assigned caretaker roles in addition to the current station to address the staffing gaps in the Jinja Magisterial Area.

While communicating the deployments on August 12, the Chief Registrar, Sarah Langa Siu, explained, “Progress is being made in recruitment of Chief Magistrates. Some areas like Bubulo have been catered for and this reduces on the caretaking load from the Chief magistrates like the one of Mbale and Karamoja Regions.”

The deployments take immediate effect while the transfers are effective September.

In Bushenyi—

Special investigations done by www.mknewslink.com managing editor Wilber Muhwezi Kasibante have revealed that the district health officer Edward Mwesigye has for a short time enriched himself by immersing riches from the cry patients and community of Bushenyi district.

During the last year covid 19, the ministry of health released 165m to the district to cater for COVID 19 activities but surprisingly Dr. Edward Mwesigye diverted the money to complete his three storied magnificent building that is estimated to be around 1billion shillings

For those who have been to Ishaka, the building is next to Bekunika hardware and park house hotel on kabirisi road.

Dr. Edward has been receiving money from other sources such as Global fund, GAVI, WHO among others.

He has been a DHO for Bushenyi for over 7 years but if you can imagine how much he has immersed you can wonder so much and know that government officials can be so corrupt.

This second wave of COVID 19, Bushenyi has received over 300m and Dr. Edward Mwesigye is already setting another site to balance his books and step up a new building.

He does not give allowances to staff neither does he share what is entitled to staff as public service act requires.

He is referred to by fellow staff as a very mean man; who cannot even buy bottle of water to a fellow staff or client in his office.

This calls for sophiscated and high level investigations by Lt. Col. Edith Nakalema and the IGG to establish the stinking stolen riches by Dr. Edward Mwesigye.

He directs all his resources; stolen and genuinely acquired to immersing riches like the 1B building that www.mknewslink.com has taken a long time to discover.

More information about the riches of Dr. Edward Mwesigye will be revealed in the subsequent publications by www.mknewslink.com

In Mbarara—

Ntungamo chief magistrate Gordon Muhimbise yesterday afternoon remanded conman Ashraf Rweyeshera to Ntungamo prison for stealing marriage certificate, land tiles from Ntungamo woman MP Baata Kamateneti’s

Rweyeshera who was arrested on Wednesday is accused of stealing land tittles and marriage certificate from the woman MP and demanding her to pay 209million shillings to get them back.

The chief magistrate remanded Rweyeshera to prison until 19^th August 2021 when he will re-appear again in court.

However, in a video that has been circulating on social media, , the hand cuffed Rweyeshera told journalists that MP Baata Kamateneti approached him on the 9th.Oct.2020 at Cafe Javas Parliamentary Avenue to act as her campaign manager and support her financially during her campaigns.

Rweyeshera told journalists after striking a deal with the legislator they again met at Kiggo Serena Hotel, and agreed that she should hand over some of her documents to Rweyeshera if she was to getfinancially, morally, and socially support from him.

” I even made a gentleman’s agreement with the legislator , I gave her cash mounting to 209 million UGSH.and my land cruiser UAR 888U for one and a half year which she used to trail her campaigns for one and a half years and she is the one who gave me the documents,” furious Rweyeshera told the press.

He noted that he has been severally reminding the legislator through text messages to pay him the remaining portion of the debt after she managed to only pay back 10 million Ugsh.

Rweyeshera further told the press that he has the evidence on form of printouts regarding the money he sent to the legislator.

Rweyeshera says that he doesn’t know the motive of arresting him now when he has already handed over the documents to the owner.

We tried to contact the Rwizi region police Spokesperson Samson Kasasira but his calls went unanswered after several attempts.
