Cerinah Nebanda (1988–2012) was a member of the parliament of Uganda, representing the Butaleja District Women's Constituency.[1] Her death at the age of 24, in December 2012,[2] sparked political controversy.[3]
Death and subsequent investigation
A government chemist's post-mortem report stated that cocaine, heroin, alcohol, and several other chemicals were found in Nebanda's blood, intestinal tract, and tissue samples.[4]
At Nebanda's funeral, however, Speaker Rebecca Kadaga rejected this report.[5] Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni denied that the National Resistance Movement, the political party to which he and the late Nebanda belonged to, had killed her.[6] The Observer newspaper reported that some Ugandan members of parliament (MPs)Шаблон:Who believe that Nebanda was poisoned, as she was a vocal critic of the government, and that the state was "arresting anyone suspected to be propagating that line".[7] Among those arrested were two MPs, one of whom was Mohamed Nsereko.[8]
Earlier, The Daily Monitor newspaper had reported that a pathologist who Nebanda's family had asked to examine her samples had been arrested while on his way to conduct tests in South Africa.[9]
On 2 January 2013, police announced that they had opened an investigation into Nebanda's death and linked it to what they called "a narcotic drug syndicate operating in a number of countries including Uganda, Pakistan, and South Sudan".[10] On 4 January, Nebanda's boyfriend, Adam Suleiman Kalungi, was arrested in Kenya and extradited to Uganda for questioning by police.[11] In July 2014, he was acquitted of the criminal charges surrounding her death.[12]
