She also said that her husband late Rujumba succumbed injuries he sustained in bicycle accident in 2006 and buried in June 3^rd of the same year. “It is shocking to see after 13 years buried to exhume for unknown reasons,” Edronah sobbed.

Speaking to our reporter, a son to the late Abenawe Fred aged 42 said that they suspect someone exhumed the body for ritual related purposes since the death of their father Rujumba was mysterious.
