By Sania Babirye

A concerned citizen a one Abey Mgugu has  dragged A plus funeral management and the bank of Uganda to the high court seeking orders to open the grave of Uganda socialite Ivan Semwanga and retrieve the money buried with him.

Mgugu is also seeking court to have the would be retrieved   money sent back into circulation so that the currency of Uganda and others are respected.

Mgugu also wants declaration that  the bank of Uganda  willfully  and negligently failed to ensure that all currencies buried  with the deceased are respected.

The public was amazed when a group of people calling themselves members of the rich gang stormed the burial ceremony of the late Ivan in Kayunga district and threw money into his grave before and when he is being lowered into his grave on Tuesday  this week.

The currencies  thrown ranged from 20 and  50 000 while others were  South  African  rands  and USA dollars.

Court is yet to pronounce itself on the matter.
