Security has arrested former flying squad boss Senior Superintendent of Police Nixon Agasirwe in connection with the murder of Joan Kagezi.
Ms Kagezi was an Assistant Director of Public Prosecution by the time of her death. She was shot dead at Kiwatule in 2015.
His arrest follows a confession by one of the suspects, Daniel Kisseka Kiwanuka to court.
Kiwanuka, who pleaded guilty to his role in the 2015 murder, testified this week that the killing was orchestrated by a man named “Nixon” who operated a white government-marked vehicle.
According to his statement, this Nixon (Nixon Agasirwe)—was the mastermind giving orders through an intermediary.
Security sources revealed that Mr Agasirwe was being held at Kireka.
Agasirwe is not strange to such cases as he was arrested in October 2017 and charged before the General Court Martial for unlawful procession of ammunitions in February 2018
