Abby Musinguzi, alias Abitex, a popular club promoter known for staging major festivals, and the party’s MC, Elvis Francis Juuko, were charged with 13 counts of rash and negligent acts leading to deaths and injury.
The deadly crush occurred at Freedom city shopping mall in Namasuba Kampala on new year’s eve as revellers rushed through a single exit to watch fireworks show killing ten people.
The Makindye magistrate court has today granted each of the accused cash bail of two million Ugandan shillings.
Musinguzi and Jjuko will be reappearing in court on February 7 this year for the case hearing.
