Eventually, Enanga added, the alleged kidnappers started demanding for a ransom of USD20.000 for his release, lest he would get killed.

Police created a task and a search operation, located the victim at a hideout in Nyendo Masaka district, where it was established to be a false story, but a plot to get quick money.

“He had conspired with an accomplice Makumbi John, a former workmate, who was actually pretending to be his abductor and was using a phone to demand for ransom,” Enanga explained.

He added; “We are launching an awareness campaign to fight this vice of extortion, where criminals lie about kidnapping a loved one and then demand for money.”

The suspects are being charged with conspiracy, giving false information and demanding by menaces.
