Kampala Woman Member of Parliament Shamim Malende has been today morning attacked by unknown assailants as headed to Masaka court where MPs Ssegirinya and Ssewanyana are returning for bail application.
Malende posted on social media that her car was deflated by yet to be identified people.
High Court in Masaka is scheduled to hear the bail application for MPs Allan Ssewanyana of Makindye West and Muhammad Ssegirinya of Kawempe North and Shamim Malende is their Lawyer.
Among the grounds the MPs’ lawyers listed for bail include serious illness, inadequate medical attention in prison where they were remanded, having fixed places of abode and that they are willing to abide by the bail terms, among others.
Prosecution slapped seven criminal charges against the MPs and others alleging that they participated in the recent spate of killings in the Greater Masaka sub region between the months of July and August this year. Close to 30 people lost their lives in the attacks which happened mostly during the night.
