Ugandan Socialite Risks Capital Punishment in Human Trafficking Case

Socialite Don Nasser, whose real name is Nasser Nduhukire, was arrested over the weekend in Nairobi, Kenya, on allegations of aggravated human trafficking and sexual exploitation of a 16-year-old girl.

Together with Promise Gatete, he was brought before the Buganda Road Court following his extradition from Kenya, where he had fled.

Both individuals have denied the charges but have been remanded to Luzira Prison until October 8, 2024.

They are now awaiting transfer to the High Court for trial, as the charges they face carry the possibility of a death sentence.
