Retired Assistant Commissioner of Police, Sam Omala, has passed on.
Omala was confirmed dead this morning at Mulago Hospital in Kampala after a long battle with cancer.
Omala retired from the police in the year 2020 after reaching sixty years and had been living in and out of hospitals for the biggest part of his retirement.
The former Kampala North Police operations commander is popular for quelling Kizza Besigye's walk-to-work protests in 2011 and will be remembered as a 'tormentor' by many in opposition politics in the country.
It should be noted that in November last year, Omala asked for forgiveness from anyone he had wronged, including Dr. Kizza Besigye.
