FORMAL REQUEST 🚨
Mr. Lino Anguzu
Director of Public Prosecutions
Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions
Plot 1 Pilkington Road, Workers’ House
P.O. Box 1550
Kampala, Uganda
Subject: Request for a Public Court Hearing in the Murder Case of Sydney Gongodyo
Dear Mr. Lino Anguzu (
@ODPPUGANDA),
I am writing to respectfully request that the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions allow a public court hearing in the case concerning the brutal murder of Sydney Gongodyo, a national rugby player who was killed by mob justice in Ntinda/Nakawa Division, Kampala, on 5th June 2026.
The circumstances of his death have caused widespread public outrage and highlighted the dangers of mob justice. Many Ugandans, including his family, teammates, and the broader community, seek transparency and accountability in this matter.
A public hearing would ensure openness, deter future acts of mob violence, and strengthen public confidence in the justice system.
I kindly urge your office to consider this request and facilitate a fair, open trial for the suspects already arrested.
Thank you for your attention to this important matter. I look forward to your positive response.
Yours sincerely,
The Charity Guy
Citizen of Uganda
