A 21-year-old Lorna Naula, a student at Kyambogo University was detained at the Chieftaincy of Military Intelligence (CMI) two days ago in Mbuya for reportedly contacting a daughter of UPDF boss, Gen Wilson Mbadi.
Even though there are currently different theories of why Lorna was arrested, one of them is that he contacted her in an attempt to help a relative in jail.
Apparently, she on Monday morning, she was picked up by plain-clothed CMI operatives accompanied by a police officer from Banda Police Station as she made her way to her hostel after a lecture.
The source revealed that Naula was picked up for contacting her former schoolmate and daughter of the Chief of Defence Forces, Gen Wilson Mbadi. It is reported that she had sought to contact the CDF to help her brother, who had been working with the military, secure bail.
Ms Naula’s brother, Mr Jonathan Muhumuza, who reportedly worked with the military on contract was arrested in September for alleged unlawful possession of military stores according to Daily Monitor.
“She made a statement on Monday, but the reason they delayed to release her was that he (Gen Mbadi) wanted to see her physically, but he is a busy man, so he failed to get time. They said he will see her when he gets time,” the source said.
