Members of opposition in Uganda want the government to release a report on a woman who jumped to death at Workers House building in Kampala. The police launched its investigations into the circumstances under which a 26-year old woman, Justine Nalugya committed suicide by jumping from the 14th Floor of the Workers House in Kampala.
She had a black bag that was lying near her body. Late Justine Nalugya was a resident of Kamuli zone in Kireka, Wakiso district. The legal Advisor of DP, Mukasa Fred Denis Mbidde says the members of opposition want the government to release a report about Nalugya’s death detailing what the government can do in future to curb suicide.
Central Police Station commander, James Ruhweza says that the police is not yet in position to release a report because the information about the deceased was still scanty. He says the police have pictures and the sketch of the place Nalugya died. Her body was taken to Mulago hospital for a postmortem report.
The policeman says the preliminary report indicates that arrived at the 14th Floor of the building that accommodates the NSSF offices and registered in the visitors’ book at about 11.00am in the names of Olivia Nalugya (although it was later discovered that she was Justine Nalugya). According to the visitors’ book, Nalugya wanted to meet some one called Peter. Nalugya according to details at the police stood near a balcony at the 14th Floor, looking down. She then looked up before throwing down her bag, shoes and immediately after pulled her skirt up and jumped to her death. There was a big bang and she did not say a word or move. The whole place was littered with brains, meat and blood.
