Court issued criminal summons for Mr Katende as he did not show up in court to enter plea.

The matter was adjourned to February 28 for mention as investigations into the fight continue.

It was not mentioned in the charge sheet why the two engaged in a fight.

A source who preferred to speak anonymously says that the fight originated from a disagreement between the journalist and Daniela. The source claims that Katende reportedly called Ms Daniela and informed her of his intention to run a ‘dirty’ article about her and a fight ensued.

By press time, Ms Daniela was still in the court cells as the friends and relatives went to the bank to pay up before she could be released officially.
