Police in Entebbe Division have launched a full-scale investigation into a disturbing case of double murder and suspected aggravated robbery, following the brutal killing of an elderly couple in Lugonjo Nakiwogo Cell, Entebbe Municipality.

The victims, 69-year-old Mutaaga David and his wife Deborah Florence Mutaaga, aged 62, were discovered dead in their home on Saturday, July 6, 2025, with what police describe as fatal stab wounds. The alarm was raised by a household worker who reported a suspected attack at the couple’s residence.
