Ugandan Police Have Arrested A Man Following The Gruesome Discovery Of 17 Human Skulls Last Month In A Shrine Located West Of The Capital, Kampala. The remains, which were found on July 28 in the town of Mpigi, about 30 kilometers (18 miles) from Kampala, included three children’s skulls, according to police reports.

Police spokesman Kituuma Rusoke confirmed on Tuesday that the suspect, Lujja Bbosa Tabula, was apprehended on August 19 by the police crime intelligence squad after receiving a tip-off. “Tabula was wanted in connection with the human skulls that were found at his residence in Mpigi recently,” Rusoke stated. He added that Tabula is currently in custody and will face court proceedings once investigations are completed, although a specific court date has not yet been set.

The circumstances surrounding the skulls’ presence at the site remain unclear. The remains were discovered in an underground chamber on a steep hill, buried in four metal boxes at a depth of about two meters (seven feet). Local media reports suggest that the location had been a gathering place for worship by some residents.

Bbosa was reportedly killed by hired gunmen in Kampala as he returned home from work in February of this year. Tabula had been on the run prior to the discovery of the skulls.
