Alien was arrested Wednesday following chaos at Nsambya hospital that reportedly resulted in the assault of two doctors and a security guard. The incident stemmed from the death of Joram Tumwesigye, a member of the Fangone.
Police reports indicate that Tumwesigye died about an hour after being admitted to the hospital following a car accident in Makindye. During a Wednesday evening court session, chief magistrate Esther Adikin charged Alien with one count of robbery related to an incident in September.
Prosecutors allege that in September 2024, at Makindye Division in Kampala district, Alien robbed Mubiru Salim of an iPhone 15 Pro valued at Shs 3.5 million, cash amounting to Shs 480,000, and a wallet containing personal documents, including a national identification card. It is further alleged that he used actual violence against Mubiru during or immediately after the robbery.
Alien denied the charges and has been remanded until December 9 as investigations continue. Unofficial sources suggest that additional charges may be brought against the musician for his alleged violent conduct.
