Police Recover Stolen Baby in Kampala as Search Continues for Girl Swept Away in Nansana

Security forces in Kampala and the West Nile region have successfully rescued a 10-month-old baby boy who was abducted by a newly recruited housemaid in Konge, Makindye Division.

According to Kampala Metropolitan Police Deputy Spokesperson ASP Luke Owoyesigyire, the child’s mother reported the disappearance at Kabalagala Police Station on November 4 after the domestic worker vanished with the infant just days after being hired. Authorities tracked down and apprehended the principal suspect, alongside two other individuals assisting with the investigation, ensuring the baby was safely returned to his family.

Meanwhile, security agencies are dealing with tragic developments in Nansana Division, Wakiso District. A intensive search is currently underway for the body of a 10-year-old girl who was reportedly swept away by fast-flowing floodwaters following heavy downpours in Kyebando Kabulengwa Village.

Preliminary reports indicate the young victim was playing outside when a companion’s slipper fell into an open drainage channel. As she attempted to retrieve the footwear, rushing water pulled her in. Police have urged residents to exercise extreme caution near drainage systems and flooded zones during rainy weather.

In a third separate incident, law enforcement in Gganda, Nansana Division, launched an inquiry after a white Toyota Harrier and two Friesian cows were abandoned in Gganda Nasere Village. Occupants reportedly fled the scene early Sunday morning, leaving behind the livestock alongside suspected house-breaking implements including a panga and a metal cutter. Investigations into all three occurrences remain active.
