She added on that she has taken over 100 girls who are happy and Magezi was not arrested as earlier reported.
“Magezi was only taken to record a statement so that we find out if she was tortured and follow up with our sister company in Jordan, “said Karungi
According to Karungi, by the time Hon. Betty Nambooze posted the story, she had already booked a ticket for Magezi however she missed the flight prompting her to book for her another flight.
While speaking on Phone, a one Pastor Sarah who Magezi is currently with said Magezi was not tortured but rather had medical complications and she is currently out of danger.
“I am not a trafficker, my husband Henry never ordered for the arrest of anyone, he was not even in the country,” Karungi added.
