In Rubirizi—

Rubirizi assistant procurement officer Izidol Saturday has been released on police bond.

Saturday was released yesterday by Rubirizi police where he was rushed to after his arrest in Bushenyi.

Police in Bushenyi arrested Izidol Saturday on 22^nd March 2021 on charges of corruption.

According to the affected person Eng. Timothy Muhwezi, he gave Saturday 3,880,000 shs and promised to give him a contract to build Kirugu Moslem Primary School in Katerera Rubirizi district.

Eng. Muhwezi told www.mknewslink.com that Saturday came to him on 22^nd March 2021 morning asking for 300,000 shs so that he could give him a contract.

Muhwezi noted that the school is already built but Saturday has been continuously lying to him and that’s why he notified police which arrested him immediately.

Eng. Muhwezi added that the suspect was transferred to Rubirizi police station which was the scene of crime.

Efforts to reach the police PRO Martial Tumusiime were futile as he was reportedly out of the office.

The Rubirizi district chairman Sylvester Agubanshongwire confirmed the arrest adding that he was waiting for details as the suspect was transferred to Rubirizi from Bushenyi.

Agubanshongwire yesterday told www.mknewslink.com in ana interview that the district he presides over is full of corrupt civil servants, politicians as well as residents.

This is not the first case of corruption in Rubirizi; Doreen Tusiime the principal human resource officer was interdicted for creating ghost workers.
