A police officer attached to the Office of the Prime Minister (OPM) detective Andrew Mugudde has been charged and remanded to Luzira Prison for defiling and infecting a 15 year-old girl with HIV.
Mugudde appeared before Kampala City Hall Court grade one magistrate Beatrice Kainza and faced charges of aggravated defilement.
He was not allowed to answer to the charge since they are capital in nature and can only be tried by the High Court.

He returns to court on February 3, 2017.
