Moses Ariho, the Assistant Resident City Commissioner in Charge of Mbarara City South Division, says Mutahi’s arrest came after he was implicated by SACCO leaders following their arrest on Tuesday afternoon. He says that the Sacco leaders accused the commercial officer of taking Shillings 6 Million out of the Shillings 30 Million meant for their Sacco.
Ochola issued the orders through the Assistant Inspector of Police Joseph Mugisa, the Director of Fire and Rescue Services who represented him at the commissioning of the Shillings 1.5 Billion Rwezi Regional Repair and Mechanical Maintenance centre in Mbarara city on Friday.
The Shillings 24 million stand poles were constructed four months to prevent heavy trucks from using the bridge. Only vehicles carrying 6 tons are allowed to use the bridge.
James Mwesigye, the Resident City Commissioner Mbarara says that Taxi and Bus Operators had started to load passengers from the non-gazetted areas which puts them at risk of being attacked by unknown people.
Ivan Onen, the Officer in Charge of Kakoba Police Post, says that a group of Indians filed a case of a missing person on Tuesday afternoon when their colleague failed to show up for work. They also tried to access him through his mobile telephone in vain.
