State Attorney Rogers Kinobe has disclosed that Police have finalized inquiries into the offenses slapped against Cornwell Muleya, the former Chief Executive Officer of Uganda Airlines by the Inspectorate of Government.
Kinobe disclosed this when the matter came up Wednesday before the Buganda Road Court Grade One Magistrate, Fidelis Otwao. He told the Court that police investigations into the matter are complete and they are ready to commence trial once allocated a hearing date.
This prompted Otwao to adjourn the case to August 31st, 2022 for the hearing to commence and directed the Prosecutors to come with witnesses.
Trouble for Muleya started on May 23, 2022, when the Inspectorate of Government summoned him to provide documents regarding the alleged mismanagement of Public funds, procurements, and recruitment of staff at Uganda Airlines.
He failed to show up without any justifiable reason prompting the IG to arrest him on June 22nd, 2022 for disobeying lawful summons. He appeared before Buganda Road Court Grade One Magistrate, Asuman Muhumuza who released him on bail.
