Blood-chilling incident in Uganda: The cannibal murderer who killed and ate 38 people was caught!

A serial killer and cannibal suspect who allegedly killed and ate 38 people during a brutal murder spree that lasted 15 years in Uganda was caught.

The country's defense chief, Gen. Muhoozi Kainerugaba, claimed on Monday that Mujurizi Moses was the "worst serial killer and cannibal in Ugandan history" who ate the body parts of dozens of victims between 2010 and 2025.

According to the Daily Monitor, a Ugandan publication, the machete-wielding suspect is accused of murdering a priest and his family, eight of his own relatives, and an elderly woman who was killed with an ax in front of her two grandchildren.

It is alleged that Mujurizi, who the police believe was also working as a hitman, broke into the houses where families were staying, murdered everyone inside and ate the body parts.

However, according to local news, he also allegedly lured women into romantic relationships and then murdered them.

In his statement on social media, Muhoozi stated that Mujurizi will be tried in a public hearing and will "definitely be executed."

Authorities also stated that Mujurizi may have killed more people who were not identified.

According to the Monitor newspaper, the suspect, who was arrested in 2009, confessed to 17 more separate murders, but managed to escape from custody by bribing himself with an amount of $ 50 that he hid in his body.

Based on previous media reports, the outlet noted that the defendant was arrested three more times over the years, but escaped each time and, together with his accomplices, allegedly killed more people by targeting people who had threatened to report him.
