Nandutu handed herself over to the police on Tuesday and was detained at Kira Police Station.

She was produced at Anti-Corruption Court in Kololo on Wednesday and charged with dealing with suspect property following the diversion of iron sheets meant for the Karachunas in the Karamoja Subregion.

Nandutu was committed to High Court for trial. Investigations on the matter are now complete.

“I have been baptized by fire but I am firm. What I am asking is, why should Agnes Nandutu be committed to the High Court when the lower court has the mandate to deal with this?” she stated while speaking to journalists outside the court.

She is the third Minister to be charged for involvement in the scandal.

Mary Gorreti Kitutu, the minister of Karamoja and Amos Lugolobi, the state minister for finance (planning) have since been charged at the Anti-Corruption Court over corruption and for causing government loss.

The Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) is investigating over 40 different case files against top government officials and technocrats (including 20 ministers and about 35 MPs).

Jane Frances Abodo told journalists that the files are being subjected to thorough scrutiny in search of any evidence that can be used to prosecute the officials implicated in the scandal.

She said her office is looking into the Vice President (Rtd) Maj Jessica Alupo and other junior government officials like the Chief Administrative Officers (CAO) and Members of Parliament (MP).
