Paddy Sserunjoji aka Sobi who rose to fame in December after claiming to be a leader of a reformed Kifesi group has been arrested.
The news of his arrest has been confirmed by police spokesperson, Emilian Kayima.
According to Kayima, Sobi has been arrested Monday in Nsangi.
He was arrested at a hotel in Nsangi – Rose Garden – together with two others; one Twaha Tim and Shafiq Kasozi.
“The police are investigating the allegations they openly made on Television stations which circulated on many social media platforms. Their daunting claims of killing people cannot simply be swept under the carpet. It will be investigated to the logical conclusion,” said Kayima.
On allegations of working with police officers to commit crime, he said that they were very interested in knowing the officers they work with.
Sobi together with tens of his colleagues shocked the nation in December when they confessed to be killers and thieves though; they claimed to have reformed and thus were to give Ugandans a break during the festive season.
They assured Ugandans that no member from the group was to carry out any acts of killing or stealing during the festive season.
