Kato Ssenfuma John was caught at his 15-year-old student’s home in Kyebando. Mixed emotions have surfaced after a one Hillside College Mityana teacher and Dean of Studies called Ssenfuma John aged 40 years, a resident of Mukono was arrested following a secret love affair that he has been having with his underage 15 year old student.
This happened in Kampala yesterday 16th January 2024. According to the leaked WhatsApp messages, it is evident that Ssenfuma John Kato went to the home of his student whose names are withheld, and started to do mature things with the juvenile student.
Experts have given reasons why he might never be convicted since he did not commit the crime he is being accused of attempting.
”ATTEMPTED DEFILEMENT, NOT ATTEMPTED AGGRAVATED DEFILEMENT… These offences are different and each of them must be considered, Where the girl is above 14 years, this may not aggravate the defilement.
And Ssenfuma is still innocent… ATTEMPTED DEFILEMENT… Remember each ingredient of a particular offense must be considered, the would-be victim is above 14 years and the defilement is aggravated where he or she is below this age… Prima Facie… Ssenfuma is still Innocent There’s no crime as attempted defile so Mr ssenfuma is innocent. He can not even be convicted for trespassing since he was invited by the girls parents who tricked him. To this point, he is innocent. What did he do? What should the ingredients of attempted defilement entail?”– an expert intervened on X.
