Kampala businessman Frank Gashumba faces fraud-related charges over funds raised on behalf of Aisha Nabukeera, the Police said yesterday.
Nabukeera is a child who was allegedly burnt by her by her stepmother. She is set to travel to the US-based Shriners Children’s Hospital to undergo a skin-grafting operation.
Mr Gashumba, who is Nabukeera’s guardian and has fundraised on her behalf, is accused of obtaining Shs2.5 million from Ms Rose Lule under the false pretext that he was going to facilitate Ms Ruth Natabi’s travel to America as Nabukeera’s interpreter.
He allegedly committed the offence in July 2007 at City Complex Building, Luwum Street, Kampala.
Mr Gashumba has reportedly collected over Shs30 million towards the treatment of Nabukeera. Mr Gashumba will appear in court today
