Another Rwenzururu Royal Guard arrested last month has died.

Yosam Bagheni, a 65-year-old resident of Kyabalongira village, Kyabalongira Sub County in Kasese District apparently died from cerebral malaria and Meningitis, according to prisons spokesman Frank Baine.

Baine confirmed the death to the media, saying the deceased was sick for about a week before he died at Jinja Region Referral Hospital where he was admitted for treatment.

”He has been sick for one week. He was first treated at Kirinya Prison clinic in Jinja for three days and later admitted to Jinja Regional Referral Hospital where he died on Thursday morning,” Baine is quoted to have said.

Along with 151 others, Bagheni has been on remand at Kirinya Prison in Jinja on charges including treason, terrorism, murder, attempted murder, aggravated robbery and malicious damage.

He becomes the second guard to die under detention following the death of Bosco Mbusa Bwambale, 36, a resident of Lhuhwahwa village, Kisinga Sub-county, Kasese District who died last month from injuries allegedly sustained during the fight at King Charles Wesley Mumbere’s palace on November 27, police said.
