Hajji Njuki Mbabali, the Deputy Resident District Commissioner for Entebbe, says security officers are investigating how Muwonge left his home and his body was found dumped in the banana plantation in Kasenyi, almost one kilometer from his home.
The police
on Thursday recovered the body of Frank Muwonge in a banana plantation in
Katabi Town Council. Muwonge, aged 30 years, was last seen on Wednesday
night according to eyewitnesses.
The witnesses, all residents of Nkumba-Bukolwa village, say Muwonge and another
man only identified as Abdul alias Kichalito fought and Muwonge collapsed.
Muwonge's friends later rushed him to a clinic for treatment and then took him
to his home after regaining consciousness in Nkumba-Bukolwa village.

says security officers are investigating how Muwonge left his home and
his body was found dumped in the banana plantation in Kasenyi, almost one

He however says preliminary findings indicate Muwonge was drunk and beaten by
fellow drunkards after he went home on Wednesday night.
Njuki says security officers will heighten surveillance and enforcement on nightclubs and bars that are causing noise pollution in Entebbe and neighboring areas because Muwonge's life could have been saved had he
made noise and some people came to his rescue during the fight.
