City dwellers are in panic mode after Police unconditionally released self-confessed criminal Paddy Sserunjoji alias Sobi and his two accomplices, Shafiq Kisozi and Tim Twaha.
The suspects were released on Tuesday evening only a few hours following their transfer from Nsangi Police station in Wakiso to Nalufenya in Jinja district for interrogations.
The trio was picked up by Police from Rose Garden Hotel in Nsangi Wakiso District early this week for interrogations in relation to their confession to the media that they were behind numerous murders and robberies in Kampala.
Highly police sources at Nalufenya police facility however, told us this morning that the trio was unconditionally released on Tuesday night. "We just got orders to release the suspects. We still don't know why they were released," the source said.
Emilian Kayima, the Police Spokesperson only confirmed the release of the suspects without divulging any details. "It's true, we have released him. That's all I can say for now," Kayima said. At the time of their arrest, Kayima said they wanted the suspects to reveal the officers they have been collaborating with to commit crime.
He even asked members of the public to volunteer information against the trio. The 38-year-old Sobi stopped working with police three months ago and joined the Internal Security Organisation (ISO). Sobi started working with police in 2016 following his release from Luzira prison where he had spent the last four years on charges of aggravated robbery and Murder.
