The defendants pleaded not guilty to the charges.


The court had on Monday, 5 January, 2026, turned down the bail application by the defendants and ordered their remand in Kuje Correctional Centre pending trial.

Giving the order for reassignment, Justice Nwite stated that the matter was returned to the Chief Judge because it was a vacation matter which needed to be reassigned by the Chief Judge to a substantive judge to handle.


Explaining further,   Justice Nwite said that,  “I have listened to the submission of the learned senior counsel for the defendants, it is not in doubt that this is a vacation matter which was returned to the registrar after the vacation for onward return to the Chief Judge for reassigning the case substantively”
