The High Court in Kampala has ruled that the Kampala Capital City Authority (KCCA) must pay Shs 123.916 million to the family of Olive Basemera, a street vendor who died in 2017. Basemera, aged 37, drowned in the Nakivubo channel on August 4, 2017, while fleeing a KCCA enforcement operation. The court found KCCA responsible for Basemera’s death, citing negligence during the enforcement activity. The ruling mandates financial compensation to Basemera’s family for the loss suffered. This decision follows a legal battle regarding the circumstances surrounding her death during an attempt to evade city authorities. The case highlights concerns about the conduct of enforcement operations by KCCA in Kampala.
