The Uganda People’s Defense Forces (UPDF) swung into action last week and arrested Abdallah Kitatta, the head of the infamous vigilante-cum-militia outfit, Boda Boda 2010 in connection with the murder of a Case clinic accountant Francis Ekalugar.

Kitatta, who doubles as NRM Chairperson for Lubaga Division was arrested alongside 27 others in a joint operation with other sister security agencies. Kitatta is a re-known ally of police boss Gen.Kale Kayihura.

Ekalugar was kidnapped early this year on January 2nd, while on his way to the bank. His body was found burnt in Kajjansi the following day. Captain Deo Akiiki, UPDF’s Spokesperson said they conducted a joint operation following leads from inside sources.

This led to the arrest of Huzairu Kiwalabye, one of the key suspects. According to Captain Akiiki, after interrogating Kiwalabye, the investigators found the need to make further arrests and picked up 28 suspects including Kitatta, the brother to Kiwalabye.
