“On the evening of March 19th, 2024, a tragic incident unfolded in Kabusu, Rubaga Division. Three assailants on motorcycles, armed with a rifle, perpetrated a heinous act resulting in the loss of life of Mr. Agama Peter, a  security guard affiliated with Wolves Security Group .

Mr. Agama, a male adult approximately 36 years old, was fatally shot while on duty at Banxele Forex bureau Kabuusu branch and his firearm was forcibly taken.

Eyewitnesses reported the swift  departure of the assailants, leaving Mr. Agama fatally wounded. Swift action was taken by law enforcement and security agencies following the incident. A pursuit of the suspects ensued, culminating in their apprehension in the Kawaala zone at Premier Betting.
