This is the highest level of criminality! They grab people's phones , bags ,side mirrors , stone vehicles , stone security, and beat people . Is that how campaigns are managed and formed ?Then people expect security to look on as all that is going on?Let's say NO to radicalism!

Be clear @DailyMonitor . Were they remanded in prison or driven back to where they were detained after arrest? It is rather strange to take them back('return them to prison') where they were held after taking plea!

UPDATE: Mbarara Chief Magistrate's Court has again deferred the hearing of a bail application by 38 NUP supporters arrested on November 7, 2025, while on the campaign trail of their presidential candidate, Robert Kyagulanyi, who was intercepted en route to a campaign rally in Bwizibwera, Mbarara District. The chief magistrate, Mr Andrew Kabombo, who was scheduled to hear their application today, reportedly travelled to Kampala for “official duties”. The court’s grade one magistrate, Alex Baguma, who presided over today’s court proceedings, told the suspects who have been on remand for a month that he could not hear their application because the case was allocated to Mr Kabombo and not him. He adjourned it to December 11, 2025. Such procedural ping-pong has been common in courts handling cases involving opposition supporters across the country as Uganda gears up for the 2026 General Election in which President Yoweri K Museveni plans to retain his seat after 40 years in power. #MonitorUpdates #UgandaDecides2026 📹: Cosline Nakahiira

Tens of National Unity Platform members including Eddie Mutwe were abducted at the start of this year for the offence of engaging in an illegal parade, many more were arrested later. The Judiciary Uganda won't give the NUP members bail, but also, Uganda Police Force won't arrest these NRM Party supporters doing the same & ODPPUGANDA won't press charges! The laws don't apply to them. Reminds me of Loyiso Gola's joke that apartheid racism was the purest form since there was no hiding behind semantics. It was just there. Blacks don't go to beaches reserved for whites, no questions, plain and simple! Guess we should be grateful that we are now at a point where it is obvious the laws only apply to some - not all and it is in the open...
