A viral video showing a group of young ladies battering a fellow has overnight attracted public attention with demands to have the suspects punished.
Latest reports, according to the Deputy Police Spokesperson – Kampala Metropolitan, indicate that Kafta Queen, the prime suspect in assaulting of one Pretty Nicole has been arrested and is currently behind bars.
“One person has today been arrested in connection to the viral video where a girl is seen being tortured. She has been identified as Kafta Queen , 18 and is the prime suspect that invited the victim to attend her birthday celebrations , only to start beating her up,” Luke Owoyesigyire announced.
Other 2 suspects are still on the run as Police continues to hunt them down.
Pretty Nicole was preyed on by seemingly close friends over allegations that the former had romantic involvements with a colleague’s boyfriend.
Earlier on, authorities had reported that Nicole had refused to cooperate with them as she blamed herself of the mishap.
This transpired as officers labored with Nicole in a bid to ensure she records a statement and provide more evidence to pin the suspect, all in vain.
“She has refused to cooperate with the Police to help identify the suspects but is instead blaming herself for whatever happened and feels she deserved the beating,” Owoyesigyire had earlier updated.
The Kampala police spokesperson however said police agreed with the victim’s mother so as to help her get over the traumatizing moment she went through during the incident.
