The incident, which happened at her home, has raised serious concerns about domestic safety and trust in personal relationships, especially among wealthy individuals.
According to preliminary information, Halima Nampeera was allegedly killed by her young boyfriend in what police believe was a violent domestic incident.
The suspect, whose identity has not yet been officially released, is said to have been in a close romantic relationship with the deceased.
Sources indicate that the two had been spending a lot of time together, and neighbors had often seen the young man at her residence.
Investigators say that after the attack, the suspect allegedly stole large sums of money from Halima’s house.
Reports suggest that millions of shillings were taken, though the exact amount has not been confirmed by authorities.
The money is believed to have been kept at her home, possibly for business-related reasons.
Police are treating the case as both murder and robbery.
Halima Nampeera was widely known in Wakiso District as a successful entrepreneur.
She reportedly owned several businesses in the Kasege area, providing employment to many local residents.
Those who knew her described her as hardworking, disciplined, and supportive of her community.
Her death has therefore left many people shocked and struggling to understand how such a tragedy could occur.
After the alleged killing, the suspect is believed to have gone into hiding.
Security sources say he may have fled the area immediately after the incident.
There are also unconfirmed reports suggesting that he could have crossed Uganda’s borders in an attempt to escape arrest.
Police have since launched a manhunt and are working with other security agencies to track his movements.
