The State House Anti-Corruption Unit,in collaboration with the Criminal Investigations Directorate and the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions,has arraigned Dr. Ssegujja Hassan, a medical doctor, before the Buganda Road Chief Magistrates Court on charges of forgery and conspiracy to commit a felony.
Dr. Ssegujja is accused of assisting Balondemu David, the Chairperson of the Kampala City Land Board and a lawyer, in fraudulently forging medical documents to support his bail application. Balondemu is currently facing charges of obtaining over UGX 2.2 billion by false pretenses and conspiracy to defraud an American company, KG Unlimited LLC.
The court has remanded Dr. Ssegujja until March 17, 2025, as investigations continue. Authorities remain tight-lipped on whether additional suspects may be implicated in the scheme.
This case adds to the growing list of high-profile financial fraud and corruption cases under scrutiny as law enforcement agencies intensify efforts to combat white-collar crime in Uganda.
