“The IGP with deep sorrow regrets to announce the sudden demise of the deputy Inspector General of Police , Maj General Paul Lokech. He passed on from his home this morning,” Police announced.

As the country waits for the official statement concerning the cause of his death, IGP Martin Okoth Ochola has directed the Director of Police Health Services Dr. Moses Byaruhanga to establish the cause of Lokech’s death.

“With deep sorrow I regret to announce the sudden death of the Deputy Inspector General of Police, Major General Paul Lokech. I have tasked the Director of Medical Services, Dr. Moses Byaruhanga to carry out postmortem to establish the cause of death,” he said.
