The family of former chairperson of Rupa Sub-county in Moroto District, Dan Apollo Loyomo, has finally accepted to receive his body for burial.
The army handed over the body for burial yesterday at the deceased's ancestral home in Natumukathkwo Village in Moroto Municipality following protracted negotiations with the family.
According to Mr Pulkol, the conditions included government taking responsibility of his death, an apology to the family and taking care of the deceased's 40 children and seven widows.
Other conditions included appointing an independent body to investigate the incident without the involvement of the UPDF 3rd Division and an army court to sit in Moroto during prosecution of the suspects.
Mr Teba Arukol, the family spokesperson, told Daily Monitor in an interview yesterday that the family had come to a mutual understanding with government but declined to give details to the media.
