City Advocate and Kampala district land board boss , David Balondemu’s co-accused pleaded guilty and got convicted spilling beans
Pleading to his evils, he testified how he was also defrauded by Balondemu while promising him protection from the anti graft agencies the State House Anti Corruption Unit (SH-ACU ) and the DPP’s office being among.
Mr Ssegujja Hassan, previously charged with forgery and conspiracy to commit a felony at the Buganda Road Chief Magistrates Court, entered into a plea bargain agreement with ODPP, pleading guilty to the charges.
Following this agreement, he was convicted on all three counts, with each count carrying a penalty of either a UGsh 1.5 million fine or a two-year prison sentence.
As part of the plea deal, Ssegujja agreed to testify against his co-accused, Balondemu David.
He admitted to having assisted Balondemu in fraudulently forging medical documents aimed at supporting a bail application related to serious charges of obtaining over UG shs 2.2 billion through deceit and conspiring to defraud an American company.
Segujja also revealed how Balondemu defrauded him over UG shs 10M under the guise that he was going to protect him from arrest and prosecution by SH-ACU and DPP.
Balondemu has, on many occasions, maligned investigators and prosecutors with unsubstantiated allegations of corruption, but such testimonies against him are a disillusionment .
