The suspects murdered their father, Silver Mushabe after he sold a piece of land for an unspecified sum of money and refused to hand over the money to them so that one of them could pay  bride price and reconcile with his divorced wife.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Bishop of the Diocese of Kigezi Rt.
