Police have completed preliminary investigations into the killing of former national boxing captain Isaac Ssenyange, alias Mando Zebra, but said they cannot arrest the suspects until President Museveni has sanctioned the operation.
A police source, who preferred anonymity, said the Inspector General of Police, Mr Okoth Ochola, submitted the police report on the shooting of Ssenyange to President Museveni about two weeks ago, but they have not received a response from the President.
Ssenyange was gunned down at night as he fled from his assailants, who attacked his home in St Francis Zone in Bwaise, a Kampala suburb, on December 30.
President Museveni later confirmed that Ssenyange was killed by military personnel and called the widow, Ms Mercy Mukankusi, to console the family.
