Police in Mubende are on the hunt for a man accused of killing another whom he allegedly found having sex with his wife in their marital home.
The incident occurred in Ngowa LC1, Katente Parish, Kiyuni Subcounty, Mubende District.
Superintendent of Police Racheal Kawala, the Wamala Region police spokesperson, reported that the suspect, Mutatina Khalisiti, allegedly caught Ignitious Nyansiyo, also known as Muhwezi, in a compromising situation with his wife.
Nyansiyo, a resident of the same village, was reportedly involved in an extramarital affair with Khalisiti’s wife.
“Khalisiti, a distant lumber worker in Kagadi District, spends most of his time away from home. It is alleged that Nyansiyo (the deceased) had been having an affair with the suspect’s wife,” Kawala said.
The incident happened on Saturday night around 9 p.m. when Khalisiti unexpectedly returned home and found Nyansiyo in bed with his wife.
In a fit of rage, he allegedly stabbed Nyansiyo to death with a knife. After the stabbing, both Khalisiti and his wife fled the scene.
When the police arrived at the scene, they found Nyansiyo’s body on Khalisiti’s bed.
“His body has been taken to Mubende Regional Referral Hospital for a postmortem. Efforts are ongoing to apprehend the suspect and bring him to justice,” Kawala stated.
The investigation is ongoing as authorities continue their search for Khalisiti and his wife.
