The main suspect in the murder of former Ndiga clan leader, Engineer Daniel Bbosa, has finally been apprehended.

Lujja Bbosa Tabula was arrested Monday afternoon by security intelligence squads in Kimelika-Namulonge, Busikuma.

Bbosa was gunned down on February 25 in Kikandwa Lungujja, Rubaga Division, as he approached his home.

The 72-year-old, who was also the director of Transa Electrical, was shot dead in his car as he neared his residence in Kikandwa Zone.

Abdul Katabaazi, a plumber and boda boda operator in Kikandwa Zone, witnessed the shooting and pursued and captured the assailants. President Museveni later awarded Katabaazi the Nalubaale Medal for his bravery.
However the prime suspect, Tabula remained erusive even as police offered a Shs10 million bounty for his capture.

The Criminal Investigations Directorate later doubled the reward to Shs20 million in a bid to expedite the resolution of the high-profile murder case, but Tabula continued to evade arrest.

Kituuma added that the suspect is also wanted in connection with the discovery of human skulls at his residence in Mpigi.

Tabula is expected to face multiple charges, including murder and involvement in illegal activities related to the human remains found at his residence.

Police have not ruled out the possibility of additional arrests as they continue to investigate the case.

Five people have already been charged and remanded in connection with the murder. They include Noah Lujja, 21, a mason; Milly Naluwenda, a secretary to a traditional court; Harriet Nakiguli; Joseph Nakabale, a painter; and Ezra Mayanja.
