Y/day, the regime thru its PM, @RobinahNabbanja attempted to smuggle into Parliament a statement on the continued abductions, detention incommunicado & other forms of rights violations - agst the agreed position that this was to be joint statement...
... the statement was to be jointly drafted by our team and the government side. We rejected her schemes, and the day's presiding officer, @Thomas_Tayebwa, agreed with us that the statement was deferred. We had perused through what she had prepared... 2/
... she had unashamedly accounting for only 5 of the 25 names on the list we previously presented to them. We then registered another case of extrajudicial killing! 75-year-old Costa Muhonja was picked by the state's operatives from Kasese on January 5... 3
... transferred to Masaka later to Sembabule & finally ended up at a detention facility at Kireka. For this entire time, they saw no reason for informing his family as to why they had arrested him and where he had been detained. 4/
After 2 weeks of torture, Mzee Muhonja succumbed to the injuries inflicted on him. His body was dumped at the KCCA mortuary on January 19th. Eight days later, the body was disposed off in the KCCA cemetery. I delegated our Ministers; Hon Jonathan Odur (Defence)... 5/
... Hon Abdallah Kiwanuka (Internal Affairs) and Hon Atkins Katusabe (Public Service) to address the press and make our position very clear to the country. 6/6 #AccountabilityAndService #EndTorturesInUganda
