HABARI DAILY I Kampala, Uganda I The heinous woman who recently perished in an explosion at the Munyonyo martyrs shrine in Kampala, has been described as a vampire by Police.
A vampire is a creature from folklore and fiction that is typically depicted as a reanimated corpse that survives by feeding on the life force, usually in the form of blood, of living creatures.
They are often associated with darkness, night, and immortality, and are often portrayed as having supernatural powers.
Aisha Katushabe, also known as Sumaiyah Byaruhanga or Kabonesa, one of the two suspected terrorists who died in the recent blast, could only appease her apatite by shedding innocent people’s blood.
Col Chris Magezi the acting director of defence and ublic information, said that Katushabe surrounded her self with explosive devices that would enable her shed blood that her spirit would consume as appeasement.

“Such being surrounds themselves with blood and leave destruction in their wake,” said Magezi, adding that when the house she was staying with her partner in crime was cordoned off, and another improvised explosive device, which security recovered from there, was safely detonated by their team.
He further noted that such beings are also connected to other blood suckers, when authorities dare make further investigations.
“Katushabe was the daughter of Abdul Shakur, the suicide bomber who orchestrated the attack on Kampala Central Police Station that left many dead and others injured in 2021,” said Magezi, validating his claim.
The said Katushabe had previously been arrested in 2023 on suspicion of terror related activities, but she was released due to lack of sufficient evidence.
Police had foiled the terrorist plot targeting hundreds of Christian pilgrims who had gathered at the Munyonyo shrine for Uganda Martyrs Day celebrations.
Had she succeed to penetrate the security cordon that had been thrown around the place, she would have appeased her hungry spirit with the blood of tens of innocent people.
Magezi also referred to Katushabe as a remnant of the Allied Democratic Forces (ADF) terror network, that used to set bombs on buses and taxis in order to cause maximum damage.
Farouk Ssebandeke, 31, a bodaboda cyclist who was operating at Wankulukuku-Kabowa stage in Rubaga division, who was blown to pieces with Katushabe, had also been introduced to the blood sucking business.
