A senior official at the ministry of security has confirmed to Uganda Radio Network that Internal Security Organization- ISO director, Frank Kaka Bagyenda, has been sacked.
The Internal
Security Organization- ISO Director, Col. Frank Kaka Bagyenda, has been sacked.
A source at ISO who preferred anonymity said they have been notified that
Kaka is no longer ISO director.
"You know it's the minister of security supposed to speak to you the
media. He's currently not around but I can confirm to you he has been replaced,"
the senior official said.
Kaka has been replaced with Charles Oluka, the former Director in-charge of technical
services at ISO.
An operative at ISO headquarters in Nakasero said Kaka received the message of
his sacking after meeting some of his field team a few minutes past 6 pm.
"I had just met him at the office and he was planning to go home. But he
was just notified by a senior security officer," the ISO source said.
The President's Press Secretary, Don Wanyama refused to comment on the matter
when contacted.
Kaka and
his operatives have often been accused of doctoring intelligence reports about
criminals, political groupings and cross border security alerts.
Besides, Kaka has been on the spot over kidnapping, detaining and torturing of
suspects in safe houses located in Kalangala District.
Col. Kaka
was appointed the ISO boss in 2017.
