 Lwakataka had already spent 2 months on remand after his bail was cancelled in October over abscondment.

 Evidence shows that on October 22, 2018, Lwakataka with others used harmers and axes to demolish Kawooya’s house over a contentious piece of land.

Sources say  that Lwakataka’s co-accused are still on the run and court extended their warrant of arrest.

 The same court has also convicted Lwakataka of damaging a barbed wire fence of Namanya Josyline and sentenced him to 4 months.

 The Court however decreed that the 2 sentences will run concurrently after Lwakata’s sought reconciliation with his accuser, escaping the deterrent sentence of 5 years.

 However, Lwakataka has vowed to file an appeal before the High court.
