GULU – 30-year-old man who was caught on a video battering his 83-year-old grandmother has been charged with attempted murder.

Brian Okello, 30, a resident of Cuda Village, Koch-Ongako Sub County in Omoro district, on Wednesday appeared before Gulu High Court Magistrate Grade I Christine Turibamwe who read to him the charge of murder.

“You have been charged with attempted murder however this court doesn’t have the jurisdiction to hear your case. You are hereby remanded to Gulu Central Prison until 5thMay 2020,” Ms Turibamwe said.
