Ugandan Boxers Vanish Ahead of Return | Glasgow News

Four Ugandan boxers vanished after missing their flight home from the Commonwealth Games, turning off their phones and sparking alarm. Their team manager, Godwin Kayangwe, says he’s clueless about their whereabouts but suspects they’re still in Europe—possibly seeking asylum for better boxing opportunities abroad. While reports suggest the athletes may be fleeing for political or gender-related reasons, Kayangwe denies any such motives and insists they return before their visas expire in October, warning that leaving without permission breaks camp rules. Police are investigating, though action is stalled until visas run out. The Ugandan high commission is now coordinating with Scottish authorities, urging the athletes to follow the law and come home before exploring future opportunities overseas.
