The accused person was paraded before court after he was netted by the State House Anti-corruption unit in collaboration with the Criminal Investigations Directorate (CID) of the Uganda Police Force and the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (ODPP).
Lutwama was also charged with fraudulent procurement of a certificate of title, forgery, uttering false documents, making a false declaration in a matter relating to land and conspiracy to commit a felony.
