"Byamugisha booked the room and they stayed together until 5:00 PM when he left alone," Twinnaemazima said.
The following morning, a guest house attendant cleaning the room found Nduwayesu's body.
"The attendant found the deceased facing upwards with her head pushed under the toilet seat. A yellow cloth was tied around her neck," Twinnaemazima explained, indicating strangulation as the cause of death.
The guest house owner alerted the police who arrived promptly and secured the scene. Nduwayesu's body was transported to Luwero Hospital for an autopsy.
Police have opened a murder investigation and detained several individuals for questioning. Their primary focus, however, is apprehending Byamugisha Gerald.
A manhunt is underway, and authorities urge anyone with information on Byamugisha's whereabouts to contact the police immediately.
