Kabale Church Leader Goes Missing, Motorcycle Found Abandoned

Kabale church leader from Kabale district, Aryatwijuka Living, has been reported missing since 15th January 2024. The 40-year-old catechist of Rubira Church of Uganda was last seen leaving his home on his motorcycle around 10:00 AM.

His wife, Ninsiima Prudence, became concerned when he didn’t return home by nightfall. Attempts to reach him on his phone were unsuccessful.

Relatives and concerned villagers launched a search for Living. They eventually found his abandoned motorcycle, church books, and a church money receipt along the Kabale-Mbarara road.

On 16th January, 2024, the motorcycle was found abandoned in Lubira village, further adding to the mystery. Police responded swiftly, opening a case file and dispatching a team of homicide detectives, crime intelligence officers, and local leaders to visit the scene, gather evidence, and search for Living.

“The scene of the crime has been visited and documented,” said ASP Elly Maate, PRO Kigezi.

“Relevant statements have been obtained, but the victim is yet to be recovered. Investigations and the search for him are still ongoing.”

It should be remembered that in 2021, the Marine police on Lake Bunyonyi in Kabale District also retrieved the body of Kabale Catholic Church leader. He had apparently drowned and died instantly while sailing on Lake Bunyonyi waters.

The deceased was identified as Kizabona Nafutali 35, a catechist at Kayanga Catholic church, Murambo parish, Butanda sub-county in Kabale district.

It was alleged that while he was in the middle of the water at Lake Bunyonyi, the local canoe he was using capsized and he drowned.

According to Marine police on the Lake, the deceased never had any protective gear by the time his canoe lost balance and capsized.

Elly Maate, the Kigezi region police spokesperson confirmed the retrieval of the body. He also asked the community around the lake to always take safety precautions seriously.
