Incident Involving Cox Kibedi: Cyber Harassment Charges and History of Inappropriate Behavior
Cox Kibedi, a 48-year-old resident residing on Kyanja Ring Road, has been remanded in Luzira until February 2, 2024, facing three counts of cyber harassment. The charges are related to an alleged act of sharing an explicit video link on Facebook, targeting Agaba Rebecca. This led to his appearance before Chief Magistrate Samuel Kayiizi at Buganda Road.
During the court proceedings, Kibedi contested the charges, arguing that Facebook operates beyond Uganda’s jurisdiction, making the allegations baseless. Despite his denial, the magistrate ordered his remand pending further investigations.
This is not the first time Kibedi has been involved in such incidents, as records indicate a history of inappropriate behavior towards women dating back to 2021. He is accused of persistently harassing and verbally abusing women who reject his advances, often using offensive language. Allegations include labeling them inappropriately.
