The Uganda Law Society President, Isaac K. Ssemakadde noted that Katunji was surrendered to the United States on a Saturday even though a five-judge constitutional petition and an application for interim protection were pending, with a hearing apparently scheduled for the following Monday. 

The latest charges were filed shortly after Kivumbi secured bail in a separate terrorism case before the International Crimes Division of the High Court.

Police believe the incident was robbery-related, with Owori’s mobile phone among the property taken from him. The stolen phone subsequently became a key lead in the investigation. Detectives traced the device, leading to the arrest of the first two suspects before expanding the probe to individuals believed to have handled or purchased it.

Ssebagayuga proposed aligning future LCI elections with general elections so they can use a common voters' register, and also called for the establishment of a dedicated tribunal to handle election disputes instead of placing the burden on magistrates' courts.

Police confirmed the death toll reached 24 fatalities (22 students and 2 adults, including the school founder) after the bus lost control, struck a large rock, and overturned. Other 23 students were hospitalized with severe injuries.

“We don’t know where exactly Lukwago is because his legal firm, led by Medad Ssegonna, tried to go to the Natete police station to report the case, but it refused. They proceeded to the CID offices, and the same thing happened. However, they decided to write to the CID headquarters about Lukwago's arrest and his incommunicado detention,” Lulume said.

The victims are believed to have been returning home from overnight prayers at St. Rose Church. All eight were confirmed dead at the scene.
