How a Suspended Sentence was Granted

After pleading guilty and sentenced, Kavuma, through his family members approached the state to find ways of saving him from dyeing in prison as a result of unattended and deteriorating health.

This was after his lawyers warned him that he had a bad case and chances were high that he was going to rot in jail.

Due to his retaliating health condition in prison, he got a suspended sentence. Should Kavuma try to do any fraudulent act, he goes back to jail and start serving his awaiting sentence.

Meanwhile, this is not the first time, Kavuma Honest has been involved in Fraud, about 10 years ago, Kavuma who was staying in Finland conned money from colleagues and disappeared back to Uganda.

In 2017, Kavuma defrauded Nigerian businessman, Jay Florin Adebayo, Director of Citi Commodities $193m.

In January 2022, Kavuma was placed on Uganda Police Force’s wanted list after a two years’ accommodation debt of amounting to Shs.170 million.

He allegedly escaped without clearing his bill of USD48,000 (Ugx 170, 253,504) that accumulated through accommodation and food at Speke apartments.
