Their appeal to the Court of Appeal was dismissed. They appealed to this court on only one ground, namely that the key witness, Ebong Moses (P.W.I) could not have identified the attackers' of the deceased. We have studied the record. We have considered submissions of Ms Musoke, counsel for Appellants, and those of M. Elubu, Principal State Attorney. In our view there was sufficient evidence to show that P.W.I was in a position to positively identify the attackers of the deceased and the witness himself. We find no merit in the appeal. The same is dismissed. Dated this 16th day of July, 2002. J.W.N. Tsekooko **JUSTICE OF THE SUPREME COURT** A.N. Karokora **JUSTICE OF THE SUPREME COURT** A.N.
