Kiboga – Authorities have arraigned Ainebyoona Ronald before the Kiboga Chief Magistrates' Court on charges of forcible entry, malicious damage, and assault causing actual bodily harm.
According to the State House Anti-Corruption Unit, the Criminal Investigations Directorate (CID), and the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (ODPP), Ainebyoona, along with others still at large, forcefully seized and violently evicted several occupants from Block 542, Plot 2 in Lwakonge village, Kiboga District, on March 14, 2025. During the eviction, the accused allegedly destroyed plantations and physically assaulted some of the occupants.
The land in question is at the center of a long-standing dispute between a group of departed Asians, who hold a freehold title dating back to 1932, and Mwanje Badru, who obtained a mailo land title in 1999. Ainebyoona claims to be acting on behalf of the departed Asians to evict Mwanje and other residents from the land.
The State House Anti-Corruption Unit launched a rapid response following a directive from President Yoweri Museveni instructing Brig. Gen. Henry Isoke, the Head of the Unit, to investigate the criminal aspects of the case. Other agencies, including the Ministry of Lands, the Inspector General of Police (IGP), and the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP), have been tasked with ensuring the law is upheld. Ainebyoona has been remanded until April 14, 2025, as investigations continue.
