His friend Tumwiine Evarist had been detained at Mbarara Police Station on charges of forgery and conspiracy after he had tried to process and acquire a land title on government land.

In July 2022, the State House Anti-Corruption Unit arrested Nahurira Danson, a Post Bank official for fraudulently processing and issuing financial cards to people.

He allegedly charged Shs1.2m to issue cards which enabled people with loans in one bank to acquire loans in other banks.

In addition, one Tumwiine Evarist was arrested for conspiring to process and acquire a land title on government land at Kyarwabuganda.

The said land measures approximately 14.62 hectares and has a Health Centre III, two cattle dams, LC 11 Administrative Units, playgrounds etc.

Upon his arrest, Tumwiine was also found in possession of two Ministry of Lands Identity Cards indicating that he is the Senior Staff Surveyor of Masaka and Mbarara districts.

Mungereza’s arrest

He also had land applications, original land files and land titles.

He further tried to bribe State House Anti-Corruption unit officials by sending his friend, Mungereza who was also arrested for offering and giving Shs5m with the purpose of making them release Tumwiine.
