The authorities said that the facts gathered on 13.10.2022 indicate that a male victim identified as Creffin, went to Afro Club in Kasangati for leisure movements.
He thereafter left and went to Queens Palace in Mpererwe, another bar. From here, he ordered more drinks. He was surprisingly joined by the suspect whom he had earlier seen at Afro Club in Kasangati.
She came and sat next to him and further engaged him in a conversation. As usual, they later exchanged contacts.
Friends, right? Wrong! Because when the victim went for a short call, upon his return, he found when the suspect was pouring his beer into his glass. When he asked why she was tampering with his drink, she claimed she thought it was hers.
The two “friends” continued drinking together. However, Creffin soon started feeling uneasy and excused himself so as to return to his home.
It was at that stage that this little thief also said she was leaving. They moved out together, but while sloping out of the bar, the victim became unconscious and blacked out.
The following day, he woke up and found himself in a lodge, stripped naked. All his items including two ATM cards for Equity and Centenary Bank and cash totaling 3 million shillings had gone missing. And as if that wasn’t enough, withdraws up to the tune of Ugx 10m were done before blocking his ATM cards.
The police, therefore, add that although their focus has been on protecting and warning girl victims. This is against “date rape” drugs put into cocktails, in order to incapacitate and sexually assault them.
They would like to use this opportunity to warn men about bar-hoping flirty women. Especially those who frequent upscale bars and entertainment places to purposely prey on men who are drunk, and appear to have money on them.
They apparently also target men who are attracted by their looks and engage them in a conversation.

![[dropcap]A[/dropcap] section of women in Bugongo parish and Nawangaiza parish in Nawandala Sub County, Iganga District have decried the near-impossible terms set for them to access GROW funds. They have now petitioned their woman member of parliament for Iganga Hon. Kauma Sauda Alibaawo to ask the government for revised terms and conditions. This is to enable them to benefit from the program. The disgruntled women accuse the implementers of the program of charging the money. They are also asking for their land titles and land agreements. They said that such properties are governed by their husbands. These, therefore want the government through their woman MP to intervene and revise the requirements for one to benefit. The women were on Wednesday at Namabwere primary school in Nawandala Sub County. They had gathered in their respective groups to receive over 300 chickens from Hon Alibaawo in her campaign to improve the livelihood of women in Iganga district. Each group was given 50 chicken as start-up capital in their journey to prosperity. Read what some leaders said; Ms Naigambi Lydia from Nawandala Trading Centre says, “They solicited money from us through opening bank accounts and depositing Shs80,000. They also asked for land titles and land agreements from us yet we don’t have such things. I was informed that I needed to have a business with a capital of Shs4m yet my capital was very small.” The chairperson Kisoboka Saving Group in Nawandala Ms. Nakagolo Faith said they were not able to join the program. This is given the many conditions attached. She also asked their woman MP to raise their concerns to the relevant offices. The MP condemned the mode of implementation of the program. She cited that it has turned to benefit the well-off class of women other than the intended group. She further asked the government to intervene saying the current strings attached to the programme are very tight to accommodate a common woman. GROW project is a Government of Uganda initiative that arose out of the need to respond to the needs of women entrepreneurs. This is especially those who want to grow their businesses, sustain their self-employment and create more jobs.
