Who is behind the ink???? Most laws were never meant to protect women, rather a shield for the Beasts! Just look at the framing, the evidence demands and court systems... many rivers to cross! And we wont tire!

He r*pes her at 15.
She’s forced to give birth.
He pays zero child support.
You call this “protecting babies.”
No. This is punishing girls for men’s crimes.

Why do men think the night belongs to them and women are prey? Let’s start there.

राजस्थान की 13 वर्षीय मासूम बच्ची, जिसने 32 दरिंदों की हैवानियत झेली, आखिरकार 5 दिन तक ICU में जिंदगी और मौत से लड़ने के बाद आज इस दुनिया को छोड़ गई।

यह केवल एक बच्ची की मौत नहीं, बल्कि इंसानियत की हार है।

अब यदि इस जघन्य अपराध के दोषियों को फांसी से कम सज़ा मिलती है, तो लोगों का न्याय व्यवस्था से भरोसा उठना स्वाभाविक होगा। ऐसे अपराधों पर त्वरित और कठोर कार्रवाई होनी चाहिए, ताकि कोई भी दरिंदा कानून से बच निकलने की हिम्मत न कर सके।

मासूम बच्ची को भावभीनी श्रद्धांजलि। ईश्वर उसकी आत्मा को शांति दें और उसके परिवार को यह असहनीय दुख सहने की शक्ति दें।🥹🙏🥹@
यह जितने 32 से 32 हैं उनकी एक ही सजा है हत्या उनकी हत्या कर देनी चाहिए ताकि दोबारा कोई ऐसा जगन अपराध न करें
बेटी तुम्हारी आत्मा को शांति नहीं मिलेगा तुम्हारी आत्मा शांति तभी मिलेगा जब वह 32 इस दुनिया से छोड़कर चले जाएंगे
ओम शांति🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏😭😭😭😭😭😭

@antonioguterres Human creation. AI would not survive without human intelligence! Its a balance and question of its benefits outweighing the risks especially human protections, socially, scientifically,economically and politically. Who gains from what? The intentions of the creators

@davimasinde Justice ⚖️ is about Conscious, doing the right thing even when there's every reason to act otherwise 👏 👌. True judicial activism defined, this will definitely build public trust slowly but surely in our judicial system many seem to be writing off!

[David Soita Masinde. @davimasinde]

When a judicial officer has to explicitly ask God to be their judge, it means the earthly forces demanding compliance have become entirely unbearable.

​During the high-stakes bail ruling of activist Miriam Matembe, Luzira Magistrate Atim Sheilla Gloria exposed the immense pressure suffocating Uganda's legal system, stating: "I am but a simple human being entrusted with a noble and heavy mandate to do justice to all in line with Article 126 of the Constitution... As a judicial officer with a Christian Catholic background, I am fortified in the decision I am about to deliver and pray that God shall be my judge." This uncharacteristic defense of judicial conscience strongly signals that powerful, hidden state actors were aggressively trying to tip the scales against Matembe.

​Trying to force an independent judiciary to rubber-stamp political detentions is like trying to force a compass to point south using a magnet; you might distort the needle temporarily, but you destroy the credibility of the entire instrument.

​The state expected quiet compliance, but they accidentally forced the judiciary to chose between regime loyalty and divine judgment.

Today, Centre for Women Justice Uganda (CWJU) joined civil society organizations, legal practitioners, and human rights advocates at a stakeholder meeting convened by UGANET to discuss developments in the HIV Law Supreme Court Petition No. 24 of 2026.

" I am the True face of HIV criminalisation" - Sylvia Komuhangi shares her plight with HIV criminalisation. She speaks to the fact that years later she still faces stigma as a result of the HIV criminalisation.

''Some provisions in the HIV Prevention & Control Act have slowed the progress made so far in the fight against HIV.'' - @Jbyam1 - Lead counsel for the petition in the supreme court.

The enactment of laws requires expertise. For example, the HIV Prevention and Control Act was passed with limited input from medical practitioners, leaving the Act with several loopholes.

Section 18(2)(e) and (h) of the Act allows a health worker to disclose the HIV status of a person to the public, which is a fundamental breach of Human Rights.

The provision on the intentional transmission of HIV is discriminatory. It requires a judicial officer who is fully aware of the facts, circumstances, and context of each case before making a decision.

Another concern relates to sections 43 and 44 of the HIV Prevention and Control Act, which address sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). These provisions exclude other infectious diseases from similar legal treatment.
