Grief and sorrow as slain MUBS student is laid to rest [PHOTOS]

It was all grief, sorrow, and sadness as MUBS student, Musawo Benjamin Aaron who was murdered by a mob in Nakawa on Saturday night was laid to rest.

Musawo was buried on Monday afternoon at his ancestral home in Adap Village, Kapchorwa district, whilst his father cursing the MUBS Community for ‘playing a role in the murder of his only son.’

According to Derrick, a close friend of the deceased, the two were invited by a classmate to attend the house party at the said hostel. The merrymaking, fun and partying went on well until the time of signing out. The askari noticed that Musawo had not signed in which prompted him to think that he is one of the thieves who usually jump over the fence to steal the students’ valuables.

“We went to attend a house party at Bahesi, I signed in but Musawo did not, so when time came to sign out I went out thinking he was coming after me only to notice the askari punching him like a thief,” Derrick, who is currently nursing wounds at Mulago referall hospital told our writer.

He adds on that he went back to rescue Baguma and told him to run but the students and boda-boda men ran after them thinking they were thieves.

“The boda guys ganged up against us in Kataza and took us back to Bahesi with several beatings, next I realised we were here in [Mulago] hospital with Aaron telling me to pass him a glass of water and something to cover up. I slept off and woke up at around 10:00am Sunday morning only to see his parents crying beside his bed and that’s when I knew that my friend had died.”
