Winnie Kizza Expresses Her Concern Over Delayed Justice In The Country

1 Mins read

The former Leader of Opposition Winnie Kizza has expressed her concern over delayed justice for the people of Uganda.

“As a leader, I am equally at pain over the delayed justice for our people,” she noted.

She stated that it’s unfortunate and sad that the laws made; their implementation is selectively applied leading to selective justice.

Her comments came shortly after the death of Rwenzururu royal guard who passed on in Luzira prison hospital bringing the number to 4 guards who died since their arrest in November 2016.

Rwenzururu King Charles Wesley Mumbere was on November 26, 2016 apprehended with 200 others when the UPDF soldiers raided his Royal Palace.

Winnie Kizza noted that according to the constitution when someone clocks 55 Years, he or she is considered of advance age and it’s a ground for courts of law to grant him or her bail but Mr. Ezakiel Isonderya who died in the prison did not benefit from the law even when he is older than the president of this country.

“It’s more disturbing when we learn that these deaths are linked to the torture our people are subjected to.”

“When our people appeared before court for mention of the charges, each family spent Ug Shs100,000 to reach out to those relatives. families are strained and stranded in hopelessness,” she noted.

She assured government that no amount of intimidation will stop the people from continuing with the fight for freedom.

“Even if they kill all of us talking about this, the few who will survive will remain talking about  this,” she noted.
