City socialite Charles Olim aka SIPAPA has been rearrested for being a public nuisance and inconsiderate use of motor vehicle.

Olim was arrested at Kisekka Market in Kampala, following distress calls from business owners in the area.

According to Kampala Metropolitan spokesperson Luke Oweyesigire, this is not the first time Sipapa is arrested over the impunity on roads.

Oweyesigire says Sipapa’s previous arrests have happened after public outcry.

“Police now warns celebrities, civil servants and motorists over road indiscipline that will lead to arrest of everyone regardless of their social status,” he said.

Other details reveal Olim is wanted for assaulting a journalist two months ago.

This marks his second arrest since May 8 when he was charged with violating traffic rules.

He is currently detained at Central Police Station, Kampala.
