Deceased: Allan Mandela and his now remanded girlfriend, Loyce Tihainomwangire.
Bushenyi Grade I Magistrates’ Court has charged and remanded the lady who murdered her boyfriend, a renowned radio presenter, last week in Rwentuha town council, Bushenyi District.
Court sitting in Bushenyi presided over by the Bushenyi Grade I magistrate, His worship John Paul Osauro, heard from the prosecution led by Sylus Bwambale that Loyce Tihainomwangire, on February 12, 2021, while in Kitwe Rwentuha town council Bushenyi district, caused the death of Allan Mandela, a sports radio presenter at Hunter FM.
After the charges were read to her, Tihainomwangire was not allowed to enter her plea since this Court, according to Osauro, has no jurisdiction to hear such a capital offence case but can only be tried by the High Court.
She was then remanded to Nyamushekyera government prison until March 19, 2021 when the case will come up for mention.
The Bushenyi media fraternity and the entire community on Friday last week woke up to the horrifying news of the death of their beloved radio presenter, Allan Mandela.
Loyce Tihainomwangire, a staff at another Bushenyi based radio who was his long time lover was then arrested after she called Police to confess that she had killed Mandela.
