They are battling charges of destroying and removing valuable evidence that would be used in court to prove the murder of their late father, Henry Katanga. However, State Attorney Jonathan Muwanganya, the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) asked Justice Muwata to deny bail to the two sisters and instead fix the case for trial, as the state is ready with its witnesses. State Attorney Muwaganya has further asked the judge to impose stringent bail terms, including depositing land titles and passports with the court, making a weekly reporting order to the registrar and sureties, as well as a bond of not less than 100 million shillings each. Nkwanzi and Kakwanza were arrested alongside their mother, Molly Katanga, following the murder of Henry Katanga, a Kampala businessman, on the 2nd of November last year. The three family members are now on remand at Luzira prison together with a shamba boy, George Amanyire, and Charles Otai, a medical practitioner from Bugolobi Medical Hospital. #NTVNews #ntvtonight #ntvweekendedition Subscribe to Our Channel For more news visit http://www.ntv.co.ug Follow us on Twitter http://www.twitter.com/ntvuganda Connect with us on Messenger via m.me/NTVUganda
