“He falls among three categories of those pardoned.He is among the elderly and has not been so well but most importantly, he had also put his life to work for Uganda for many years and on humanitarian grounds he qualified for pardon,” Baine said.

Lwamafa was sentenced together with Christopher Obey, the former Principal Accountant in the Pensions Department, Stephen Kiwanuka Kunsa, the former Director Research and Development and city lawyer Bob Kasango who died inside Luzira prison in February, 2021.

According to the prisons spokesperson, the president also pardoned 199 other prisoners who were part of the group of 1800 names sent by prisons to the prerogative of mercy committee for pardon.

Baine said the list of 1800 submitted in June had petty offenders who have finished more than 50% of their service, all those on death row and have concluded their appeal process, the elderly, convicts who have finished more than three quarters of their sentence, suckling mothers and pregnant women who are pretty offenders and have finished more than a quarter of their sentence.

“Those whose names submitted also include the terminally ill and all capital offenders who are remaining with six months to their sentences,” Baine noted.
