Inspector-General of Police Hillary Mutyambai, who confirmed the events leading to the death of the two officers, on Wednesday morning, said the incident happened at 3pm.

 

“PC Wakise who had been off duty since April 1, reported back to work yesterday but left at 3.00 pm and retired to his residence at GSU camp. It is alleged that he shot and killed his wife before turning the gun on himself, ending both their lives,” Mutyambai said.
