Detective Sergeant Ngabirano Protasi, attached to Nsangi Police Station, was arraigned before the Chief Magistrate’s Court in Makindye on Friday.

According to the charges, Sgt. Ngabirano allegedly conspired with others to falsely implicate Richard Sewanonda in an aggravated robbery case. The motive behind this alleged forgery was to steal Sewanonda’s contested land.

Investigations by the State House Anti Corruption Unit headed by Brig Henry Isolde, revealed that in January 2025, Ngabirano purportedly removed a key witness statement from an official police file at Katwe Police Station and substituted it with a statement implicating Sewanonda.

This alleged misconduct was intended to ensure Sewanonda’s imprisonment, allowing Ngabirano and his accomplices to dispose of the land.

The Anti-Corruption Unit, CID, and ODPP Uganda jointly brought the charges against Ngabirano. If convicted, he faces serious consequences, including imprisonment and dismissal from the police force.

The case highlights concerns about police integrity and potential abuse of power.
