This follows a CCTV video trending on social media that captured a robbery incident that occurred on July 15, 2024, at approximately 12 p.m. at Eso Corner in Kampala City.

Deputy Kampala Metropolitan Police spokesman Luke Owoyesigyire identifies the victim as Joshi Keshav, a 32-year-old Indian national and tour and travel company operator based at Crown House, Kampala Road. He says that the victim reported the incident to the Nkurumah Road Police Station 

The CCTV footage shows Mr. Keshav on a motorcycle carrying a bag when he was cornered by several riders due to heavy traffic.  

“The assailants proceeded to beat and rob him. The stolen items include a laptop valued at UGX 2.2 million, cash amounting to UGX 150,000, an Ecobank debit card, and keys. Fortunately, Mr. Keshav sustained only minor injuries,” said Owoyesigyire in a statement on Tuesday. 

Owoyesigyire says a team of investigators is diligently tracing “Mr. Keshav’s movements from the start of his journey to the location of the incident.”

“Numerous clues have been gathered to aid in the ongoing efforts to apprehend the suspects involved in this crime,” added Owoyesigyire.
