Male Nurse Arrested For Raping Pregnant Women Who Seek Gynaecology Services At Entebbe Hospital

Police in Entebbe have arrested a male intern nurse at Entebbe Grade B hospital for allegedly raping pregnant pregnant women who go to seek gynaecology services from the government-aided facility.

This has been confirmed by the Deputy Police Spokesperson, Kampala Metropolitan area, Luke Owoyesigyire saying the suspect identified as Denis Kutesa was arrested over allegations of rape and attempted rape on two female patients at the hospital adding that the suspect always targeted pregnant women who go there to seek gynaecology services.

“According to the allegations, the suspect identified his victims from the gynaecology ward and then drugged them using a substance suspected to be chloroform before raping them,” Owoyesigyire revealed.

According to police, the arrest of the nurse came after one of the pregnant women refused to take the special procedure that he wanted to subject her to noting that she could only take it while conscious and refused to be drugged.

However, another woman who accepted to take the procedure would later report a case of rape to Entebbe Police.

When the male nurse was eventually arrested, a search inside his house saw police recover a bottle suspected to contain chloroform.

Also recovered is a letter that Kutesa wrote to a prominent pastor in Kampala seeking prayers so he can abandon the vice of raping patients.

Police investigations also revealed that the nurse has admitted to raping patients and it is suspected that many women have fallen victim to his actions.

According to the security guard at the hospital, many women are always seen coming from the suspect’s room.
