Boy sentenced over murder

By Sania Babirye 

A boy has been sentenced to   nine years in adult prison over murder.

He was sentenced after he pleaded guilty to killing a man he suspected of being thief, with the hope of getting a lighter sentence. He committed the offence December 2015 in Entebbe.

Court presided over by  Justice Joseph Mulangira heard that the boy with help of another person tied up Mukasa Muhamade with a rope, and burnt him with gas after he entered a garage where they worked .
