The notorious officer caught slapping a supermarket cashier over a Shs 30k bill is finally facing the heat!
Assistant Superintendent of Police (ASP) Clive Nsiima, the officer at the center of a viral video showing him assaulting a supermarket attendant, is scheduled to appear before the Uganda Police Force’s disciplinary court today, Friday, October 10, 2025, as proceedings against him continue.
The hearing marks the second appearance for Nsiima, who faced the internal tribunal yesterday, Thursday, October 9.
According to police spokesperson ACP Rusoke Kituuma, the process remains ongoing, with Nsiima expected back in court to address allegations stemming from the incident at a Shell fuel station in Kyanja, a Kampala suburb.

The case erupted earlier this week after CCTV footage surfaced online, capturing Nsiima—in civilian attire—slapping a female cashier twice during a dispute over an unpaid bear and condoms bill of Sh30,000.
Nsiima, attached to the Counter Terrorism Directorate under the Oil and Gas Protection Unit, was arrested on Tuesday, October 7, following widespread public outrage on social media.
He remains in police custody at Naguru Police Headquarters, where his firearm has been seized as evidence.
The incident has been registered at Kyanja Police Post under reference 08/07/10/25, charging assault and threatening violence under Sections 235 and 236 of the Penal Code Act—offenses punishable by up to five years in prison.
In a statement released Wednesday, Kituuma confirmed Nsiima’s detention and condemned the behavior as a clear violation of the police disciplinary code.
“The officer has been apprehended and detained in police custody. He will be brought to account as soon as investigations are complete,” Kituuma said.
He emphasized that investigators have contacted the victim and witnesses, including the Tayari Security guard involved, to record statements.
Parallel to the disciplinary action, criminal investigations are underway, led by the Directorate of Criminal Investigations.
Director AIGP Tom Magambo described the assault as “isolated behavior” but assured the public of swift internal probes to determine further action.
Ugandans are watching — and demanding that this slap-happy cop finally pays the price.
