An Ugandan anti-corruption court issued an arrest warrant for Stella Itute, a supervisor in the parliament office, due to her failure to appear in court regarding alleged embezzlement of parliamentary funds. This development occurred as another official, Obore, was further remanded in custody related to the same case. The Inspectorate of Government (IG) prosecutors requested the warrant against Itute, citing her absence to answer the charges. Magistrate Esther Asiimwe granted the request on Monday. The case centers around the alleged misuse of funds within the parliament. Further details regarding the extent of the embezzlement and the specific charges against both individuals remain forthcoming. This ongoing investigation highlights continued efforts to combat corruption within Uganda’s government institutions.
