Priest remanded to Kigo prison over murder of URA employee

Rev. Fr. Dominic Alinga, a 34-year-old priest, was on Friday remanded to Kigo prison until August 26 for the alleged murder of Uganda Revenue Authority employee John Bosco Ngorok and the attempted murder of Abigaba Mugisha.

Rev Fr Alinga is a Catholic priest and resident of Alipada village, Ngoleite Sub County, Kangole Town Council in Napak District.

Appearing before Entebbe Grade One Magistrate’s Court, Alinga was calm and composed as the charges were read to him. However, he couldn’t take a plea as the charges are capital in nature and can only be heard before the High Court.
