Police in Fort Portal have arrested six Christians of the seventh day Adventist western field suspected to have a connection with assaulting their bishop Mwebaze Samuel 51 years.
Lydia Tumushabe the Rwenzori East police spokes person has identified the suspects as Kakwezi Joshua, Kihumuro Jonathan, Mugenyi Amos, Kahebwa Bob, and Kakwezi Julius.
According to Lydia, on 19th March 2019 at Moldina Street SDA western field offices, the six and others at large stormed the office, twisted the bishops hands, beat him and gave him several strokes.
The PRO has stated that the bishop is accused of mismanagement of church funds, immoral behaviors in church among top leadership, disrespecting the church members and promoting tribalism.
However Tumushabe has condemned the act saying that Christians would have reported the case to police than fighting.
She has further disclosed that police is still doing its investigations into the matter.
Meanwhile by this afternoon there was going to be mediations between police, church leaders and the aggrieved party.
