Terror has gripped the residents of Kijajasi Makondo in Ndagwe district in Lwengo after a man known as Sharif Ssesanga, who is 34 years old,went out of his senses and assaulted Mukasa Joseph, aged 21, accusing him of failing to respond when he greeted him.
It’s alleged that Ssesanga found Mukasa on the road walking and saluted him, but Mukasa just kept quiet, so Ssesanged jumped onto him, knocked him to the ground, and started punching and kicking him.
Rescuers tried to rescue Mukasa, but he was in a bad state. They tried to rush him to the hospital, but he died on arrival.
The police of Nnaanywa Ndagwe in Kijajasi fired in the air so as to disperse the residents who were ready to kill Ssesanga Sharif, who had killed their colleague.
Kasumba Hussein, the chairman of this area, said Ssesanga had been using drugs and alcohol, which may have caused him to get angry and beat his friend to death.
