Sandra Teta, the wife of musician Weasel Manizzo, is currently behind bars after being arrested on Thursday morning following a clash with the singer.
It's alleged that Sandra Teta attempted to kill Weasel by running him over. She reportedly knocked him down following a scuffle at a bar in Munyonyo.
The singer is currently receiving treatment at Nsambya Hospital in Kampala for a broken leg and is scheduled to undergo surgery on Friday morning. He will not be able to perform for over six months as he recovers.
The latest information we have is that Sandra Teta will be charged with attempted murder for trying to end the singer's life.
According to the Ugandan constitution, attempted murder is a felony offense with a penalty of life imprisonment. The relevant law is the Penal Code Act, which outlines the offense and its corresponding punishment. While the law prescribes a life sentence, courts have the discretion to consider mitigating factors and may impose a shorter sentence.
At this time, Howwe cannot verify the attempted murder claims against Sandra Teta and leaves the matter to the authorities.
