Police have arrested two suspects and recovered dozens of suspected stolen mobile phones as investigations continue into the murder of Owor David, a captain of Villa Football Club.
According to an update issued by the Uganda Police Force, the investigation established that Owor was robbed of an iPhone 14 Pro Max during the incident. Tracking the stolen phone reportedly led investigators to Munyaneza Bashir alias “Jemo,” a suspected dealer in stolen mobile phones, and his associate Magoba Samuel.
Police say four bags containing suspected stolen phones were recovered. The haul included 80 iPhones, 40 Samsung phones, eight Redmi phones, two Tecno phones, two Infinix phones, two Vivo phones and three button phones. Officers also recovered four phone motherboards, three iPads and SIM cards from MTN, Safaricom, Airtel and Lyca.
Other recovered items include ladies’ bags containing identification documents, phone covers and hard drives. Police say the investigation is ongoing to establish the ownership of the recovered items and the suspects’ possible links to the murder and other robberies.
The development comes as Owor was laid to rest in Tororo today, with family, friends, teammates and other mourners paying their final respects to the footballer. The latest arrests and recovery of exhibits could provide investigators with important leads as they work to establish the full circumstances surrounding his death.
