Controversies
Isaac Mulindwa Jr. accused a ‘mafia gang’ led by one Matthew Bakyawa of masterminding an assault on him over a land ownership dispute in the posh Makindye district.
Mulindwa stated that his quarrel with Bakyawa and his group originated from a land dispute on Block 273, Plot 5644 Kyadondo at Kyamula in Upper Kkonge.
He purchased the site from Equatorial Real Estate Ltd. in 2010. While in South Africa, he learned from one of the overseers that some people had imported construction supplies and had begun erecting them on the land.
Mulindwa returned to Uganda and checked to see if the folks had left. Instead of merely discovering the tiny store, which he knew had been built and completed, he discovered that they had also built another small house, which was nearly finished, and inside was a woman with children.
When he returned the next day to see if they had departed, he was accosted and battered by a panga-welding gang led by a man named Simeon.
