According to the BBC, Ugandan police have arrested Enock Nsubuga in connection with the murder of David Kato.
Ugandan police have arrested a man over last week’s murder of David Kato, a gay activist who sued a local newspaper which outed him as homosexual.
Police say Enock Nsubuga, the second person arrested in connection with the killing, is their main suspect.
They deny that Mr Kato was killed because of his sexuality and that initial inquiries point to robbery.
It is not a good sign when the police think they know the motive before they arrest the suspect. An Enock Nsubuga has this Facebook profile (this Enock likes his beer) but I don’t know if this is the same person.
Hopeful…let us see which facts string together soundly.
And now there are reports of ‘attempted rape’:
http://www.monitor.co.ug/News/National/-/688334/1100686/-/c5a2fcz/-/index.html
This bit looks ‘interesting’ …
“The suspect said he left the bedroom, went to a store and picked a hammer which he used to hit him [Kato] while he was still in bed …”
So, let’s see … someone in a room with me wants to rape me, so I leave that person in the room and go out to ‘a store’ (another room or a shop) and then go back to the room where the person who wishes to rape me is in bed? Hmmmm.
I wonder what Kato’s version of events is? Oh no – just remembered, he’s dead! He can’t say anything.
Dr. Warren I can’t get through. Am wondering what could have happened. I have tried to post my comments and give some updates but it has all been impossible. Advice.
And, as Warren has implied in his piece, the ‘motive’ was stated some days ago – not a good sign. More normal procedure is to arrest the suspect(s), interrogate him/her (them), and THEN start making assertions about motives.
But this is no normal murder; even you know that, ‘Maazi’ dearest.
By the way, how’s Muhame these days? This murder may have saved him some cash (1.5M UGX, I believe). Lucky fellow!
Oh, and talking of ‘exporting agendas’: Bahitler wants to export his ‘Mass Murder Agenda’ (to other African states in the first instance) – that he has made perfectly clear.
David
I think your analysis has merit. In a way, it suggests that homophobia (i.e. the irrational self-hatred of the suspect, fuelled perhaps by the hateful rhetoric of others) may be a factor here.
While I do remain somewhat sceptical about the ‘explanation’ offered so far (after all, we’ve had the Bahati Bill, the ‘pastoral porn shows’, the ‘Rolling Stone’, the threats to Kato and his fellow plaintiffs, the general homophobic ‘background noise’), the calm and balanced way in which the Inspector General has presented the situation so far is to be welcomed.
It may not be a hate crime.
It appears to have been perpetrated by a man of general low character rather than a religious zealot.
It is theoretical, and reasonable, that men with ambivalent sexual drives experience homosexual panic in such situations and become violent as a way destroy the thing they fear most in themselves.
I am always calm, though irritated atimes.
Generalizations are not good and usually contain inaccuracies. But what I said— about Westerners poking their noses where they are not welcome— is an incontrovertible fact. It has nothing to do with generalization.
I find no fault with the police. Preliminary investigations seemed to indicate robbery as motive for the homicide. Now, a suspect confessed that it was not robbery, but a quarrel with the victim. If you reject these findings then produce tangible evidence to back it up. Your gut feelings is not an appropriate substitute for the evidence.
QED!
What does this mean?
Richard,
I am sure that every Westerner who spends time interfering in the affairs of non-western countries claim “connections to that country”. I have no doubt that Warren Throckmorton has “special Ugandan connections” as well. I guess Wendy does too.
This I agree with. Even though, I know you will reject any facts that do not fit your conspiracy theory.
It is incontrovertible that Westerners do not like to mind their own business. They are always poking their noses everywhere in the world— from the Middle East to South Asia; from South Asia to Southeast Asia; from Southeast Asia to Far East Asia; from Far East Asia to Latin America and Africa. The worst thing about these unsolicited intrusions is that most of the time Westerners know very little about the place they are interfering in.
Well now, ‘Maazi’, you often make generalisations about ‘the west’, and we just listen. But that’s OK – you’re entitled to do that if you wish … after all, you are a Ugandan with ‘western connections’.
And I am a Briton with ‘Ugandan connections’ (some rather interesting ones that might surprise you, actually – but I won’t go into that, especially since you won’t say who you really are) and who supports charitable work in UG, and so feel entitled to comment on selected Ugandan affairs, just you comment on ‘the west’. But please note that I have never made any sweeping generalisations about Uganda and Ugandans, for two reasons: firstly, sweeping generalisations (whether about Ugandans, Britons, Americans, gay people, etc.) are usually highly suspect, to say the least; secondly, I have too much respect for my Ugandan friends, of which I have many, to do so.
As for ‘conspiracy theories’: my thesis on the Kato killing is based on the fact that the ‘evidence’ seems rather ‘uncertain’ (‘quick confessions’ are often questionable things), and on the fact that Kato and his friends received many threats in the weeks before his death. As you suggest, I’m sure that things will become clearer as Nsubuga’s statements are cross-checked with the available facts.
The word “homophobia” is meaningless. It is one of those western-constructed buzz words which people in the West like to throw at people who disapprove of gayism. That word has no foundation in reality. Who are these “skeptical millions” you are talking about? Millions of Americans, Millions of Britishers, Millions of Europeans, Millions of gay sex practitioners across the world? The only “millions of people” that matter are those in Uganda and these are satisfied with the progress of the police investigation. The other “millions” outside the country are free to be skeptical about anything, including whether JFK was actually killed by Lee Harvey Oswald or whether indeed a US astronaut really landed and walked on the moon in the 1960s.
Dear ‘Maazi’
Talking of ‘watching’: you too are free to concentrate on your own affairs, and let us discuss things here.
Well, I’m not hopeful that the true motive for the killing will be ‘found’. It is so much in UG’s ‘perceived interest’ to arrive the conclusion that it was not a homophobic attack.
Robbery? The why was so little of value taken? And even is it was robbery, might the robbers have thought that the police might ‘go easy’ on them because the victim was gay (i.e. without all the hate, might the ‘robbery’ have not taken place)? Or then again, perhaps the ‘robbers’ were paid to do a ‘hatchet job’ by someone wishing to remain in the shadows? People like Giles Muhame get others to do their dirty work.
I am quite convinced that this murder was no mere coincidence. We should not forget that Kato was receiving a vast number of threats in the weeks leading up to his death.
It is a free world. if you must, please watch, from a thousand miles away from Africa, until your eyes are strained from the effort.
Uganda is my affair. You are free to discuss whatever fantasies you and your friends are coming up with. I am only suggesting that if you cannot present tangible evidence to back up your conspiracy theories, then it may be better to concentrate on the problematic affairs of your own country, the United Kingdom. You do know that your country has its own problems. Don’t you?
Here’s Muhame’s take on it all (apologies for the [edited] ‘graphic’ descriptions – these are Muhame’s words, not mine):-
“The latest intel shows the killer of Uganda’s king of sodomy David Kato has now confessed to police that the guy mercilessly worked on his […] for the entire night and wanted more during the day!! “I killed him in defense of my […], it was emitting gallons of blood yet Kato could not give me a break,” Nsubuga told detectives shortly after his arres[t]. More details coming in….watch this space…hehehe”
I’m sure a medical examination will show if Muhame’s evident excitement warranted. (We all know what high standard Muhame holds to when it comes to journalism.)
One question: why is someone capable of killing a man apparently so defenceless? I have to say it again: ‘hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm’!
There is a potential problem here for the ‘anti-gay’ brigade: a suspect like this can so easily go ‘off message’, and say rather more awkward things … like Matovu, for example.
Not sure Muhame should be quite so pleased with himself … who knows what might come out if a medical examination does NOT suggest that the above happened? This ‘suspect’ will want to get off a murder charge if he can. I know I would.
Dear Richard,
While you and your friends are in the UK indulging in fantacies, law enforcement agents are working in Uganda to solve a murder case. A suspect has been arrested and he made a confession. He will soon be charged to court so that our independent judiciary look into the matter. Beyond the conspiracy theories, your gut feelings and fantacies, if you have any tangible evidence that the law enforcement agencies are not being truthful, please make them public. Otherwise, it might be a good idea to turn your attention back to mundane issues in good old England. BTW, I hope you are coping with the weather over there. I am aware it is usually chilly this time of the year
It will, of course, be interesting to see what comes out when the suspect is examined further; also if the suspect were indeed bailed out by Kato, there would be a record of this … unless the mice have been at the files. (The Monitor article raises ‘questions’ – if one reads it intelligently.)
Nothing in today’s New Vision (yet).

Re. the Enock Nsubuga FB profile: this person and I are both part of a campaign to raise money for a little Ugandan girl called Saidat who needs a kidney transplant. Some of those organising the campaign are (Ugandan) friends of mine, and seem very decent, caring folk – not the kind of company one might expect the ‘murdering type’ to keep?
Not convinced that this FB guy bludgeons people to death with hammers – perhaps it’s another Enock N., or the true perpetrator is not Enock N. at all.
Also: note that a HAMMER, not an iron bar, is cited as the weapon. Does this mean that this murder is not ‘another iron bar’ crime, after all?
Hmmmmmmmmmmm.
Dear ‘Maazi’
I’m sure you’d be delighted if we stopped watching! But we’re not going to. So there we are.
Also, early witness statements mentioned PEOPLE (i.e. more than one person) arriving at Kato’s house … then A PERSON leaving it with Kato’s jacket over his face.
http://www.monitor.co.ug/News/National/-/688334/1096754/-/cioqhhz/-/index.html
All I can say is (yes, you’ve guessed it!): ‘hmmmmmmmmmm’!
Don’t believe a word of it.
And for the Maazi gay gene thing: I hope we can soon find the stupidity gene.
I am glad you see Ugandans as calm and balanced. I hope you will not suddenly change your views when the facts refuse to fit your fantasies.
I am quite disappointed that you misunderstood me. If there is mutual agreement between two or more people to engage in any activity at all, then we can say that the activity is “consensual”. With regards to gayism, I have always argued that “consent” is no excuse for engaging in the abominable crime of buggery. For instance, in Uganda, assisting a person in committing suicide is illegal even if consent was given by the suicidal person to the assisting individual.

The UG police have changed their tune in the last day or so. Now they are no longer ‘dismissing’ what they term the ‘hate crime theory’.
Let’s hope there’s no simplistic ‘stitch up’. It’s looking more hopeful now, I think. But we shall see …

Actually, the Enock Nsubuga cited by Warren is another one, and is a social events manager, I think. I don’t think it is that one either. I know (very nice) friends of his, and judging by the company he keeps …
I know OF (but have no personal contact with) the ‘Enock Nsubuga’ you cite – and you are certainly correct to say that he is NOT the suspect.
The suspect’s name is also ‘Sydney Nsubuga’ (and this the name now being given out by the UG police).

A further point: in the past, ‘Maazi’, you have decried the use of the word ‘consensual’ in relation to same-sex relationships. I’m please that you know recognise the concept, in fact, if not in law.
Nevertheless, ‘Maazi’, when people in positions of responsibility are ‘calm and balanced’, I respect and welcome that, notwithstanding any ‘doubts’ I might have.

Don’t get too excited. Literally, speaking the act of sodomy between the 2 men was mutually agreed hence it was “consensual”. New Vision did not comment on the legality or illegality of the said “consensual” act.

The reference to ‘consensual sex’ is interesting; under UG law, there is technically no such thing as ‘consensual’ homosexual activity.
Maybe there’s some ‘new thinking’ around?

To all of them that bias the investigations of our police…This is not the first time Kato(RP) is accused of rape. Was once accused by one Paul K. who was a student in Masaka, and he gave him Ugandan shilling equivalent to 150$ before recruiting him into homosexuality.
It’s not my place to ‘accept’ or ‘reject’ findings.
I’m perfectly entitled to express ‘scepticism’ if I choose; if you don’t like it, then don’t read my comments.
Evidence? Of course, the statements will need to be checked against other evidence, and any future statements made during questioning.

You’re probably correct to assume that any conclusion that says ‘no connection with homophobia’ will be greeted with scepticism by me and millions of others. After all, Kato’s house was broken into three days before his murder, I’m told – why weren’t the goodies taken then? Probably because the object was to kill Kato.
I doubt you will ever believe the outcome of any police investigation that does not validate your conspiracy theory because of your vested interest in exporting the Gay Agenda to Uganda
Well, I’m not hopeful that the true motive for the killing will be ‘found’. It is so much in UG’s ‘perceived interest’ to arrive the conclusion that it was not a homophobic attack.
