Police in Luwero District are investigating the murder of Nduwayesu Marie Rose, a 48-year-old Rwandese national, found dead at Klne Guest House in Kizito Zone, Luwero Town Council.
Preliminary reports indicate that Rose was murdered on Saturday, May 18, 2024, by a man identified as Byamugisha Gerald. The suspect, who did not provide further personal details or contact information, booked a room at the guest house with Rose around 2:00 pm. They stayed in the room until 5:00 pm, when Gerald checked out alone.
On the morning of May 19, 2024, a room attendant discovered Rose’s body with her head pushed under the toilet seat and a yellow cloth tightly tied around her neck, suggesting strangulation. The incident was reported to the business owner, Kigozi Lameka, who then notified Luwero Police Station.
ASP Twiineamazima Sam, spokesman for Savannah Region says Scene of Crime Officers (SOCO) and homicide squad collected evidence, including CCTV footage, and recorded statements from relevant witnesses. Several suspects have been arrested to assist with the investigation. Rose’s body has been taken to Luwero Hospital mortuary for a postmortem examination.
A manhunt for the prime suspect, Byamugisha Gerald, is ongoing.
