Kampala, September 2, 2026 — The City Magistrates Court has remanded socialite Christian Asiimwe, commonly known as Don Chris, to Luzira Prison over 127 charges of obtaining money by false pretence from job seekers.
Don Chris appeared before Grade One Magistrate Nicholas Aisu on Wednesday afternoon, where the prosecution charges were read to him.
The charges were contained in seven separate charge sheets, with each sheet carrying details of about 20 complainants who allegedly lost money to the accused.
Prosecution alleges that between 2022 and 2025, Don Chris obtained millions of shillings from hundreds of job seekers after falsely representing that he could secure them employment abroad.

The countries mentioned in the alleged scheme include Canada, the United Kingdom, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates.
According to the prosecution, the job seekers paid money after being promised employment opportunities and assistance with securing jobs outside Uganda.
Don Chris, who is a former director of the now-defunct labour recruitment company Sky Pins, was recently arrested in Zzana before being brought before court.
The prosecution presented the multiple complaints against him as separate charges, resulting in the 127 counts read in court.
After the charges were read, the court remanded Don Chris to Luzira Prison.
He will return to City Hall Magistrates Court on September 21 for mention of the case.
The allegations against Don Chris have not yet been tested in a full trial, and he remains presumed innocent unless and until he is proved guilty by a competent court.
