The Police on Sunday confirmed they had arrested the newly-elected National Unity Platform (NUP) Member of Parliament for Busiro North, Paul Nsubuga, who was caught on CCTV camera allegedly stealing a phone from one of the shops in Kampala.

Kampala Metropolitan Police Deputy Spokesperson Luke Owoyesigyire confirmed the arrest, adding that the suspect had been detained at the Central Police Station. The crime was allegedly committed in 2019.

'Police at CPS Kampala are holding Nsubuga for allegedly being involved in the theft of a mobile phone, itel 5625, silver in colour worth sh80,000, and was containing Airtel Money worth sh4.5m,” the Police spokesman said.

“The matter was reported by Gloria Namengo, a businesswoman and resident of Kawempe Division in Kampala district,' Owoyesigyire said, adding that the case was registered under file number: CPS KAMPALA CRB 392/2021.

Police noted that, according to Namengo, on June 3, 2019 at around 1pm at Inseria Properties Nakasero opposite Shoprite Entebbe Road, Nsubuga allegedly stole the transaction phone and the incident was captured by the CCTV cameras installed in the shop.

Owoyesigyire said the suspect was arrested and is currently detained at Central Police Station on allegations of theft.

“Investigations are still ongoing as we have also ascertained that a lot of victims have come out to complain of the same person about the theft of their money,” he said.  

The Police also explained why they had taken long before arresting Nsubuga.

'We received the CCTV footage when the crime was committed but it was difficult to arrest him because no one knew Nsubuga.

'He was only identified after he started campaigning. It is actually the Police that took long to arrest him,' Owoyesigyire explained.
