Desire Mirembe Jemimah, a Makerere University student was raped and murdered in the sugar plantations of Kawolo, Lugazi. The 20-year-old was pursuing a Bachelor of Science Degree in Speech and Language therapy.
According to friends, she had travelled to Jinja on Friday to spread the word of God.
On Saturday night, she sent her mother a text message informing her that she was stranded in Jinja and needed some cash. That was the last time they communicated. From Sunday evening, WhatsApp messages, accompanied with her photo have been making rounds on various WhatsApp groups sent by her OGs from Mt St Mary’s Namagunga and close relatives.
Friends and family had created a hashtag #FindDesire as a way of raising awareness about her missing.
The search for the missing young lady came to a tear-jerking end on Tuesday afternoon, after the news of Desire’s body being found broke. She was found dead at a morgue in Kawolo Hospital, Lugazi.
But contrary to earlier reports, Desire was not beheaded. May her soul rest in eternal peace
