The Police fire and rescue services have since recovered five bodies from the rubble after half a quarry caved in covering them.

The deceased have been identified as; Nsumba Abdu (35 years), the driver of motor vehicle registration number UBL 456T Isuzu forward who had gone to load gravel at the stone quarry, Kagwa Ronald (30 years), Kasule Vicent, Irumba Junior (24 years), and  Lubogo Posiano (39 years), all casual labourers.

“Investigations into the matter are on to ascertain what happened. We however advise members of the public in the surrounding area to avoid moving to the quarry as it is currently a threat to the lives of those occupying it,” Owoyesigyire said.
