High court rules: After 180 days on remand without trial, bail becomes mandatory
In two separate rulings, justice Paul Gadenya Wolimbwa held that courts are constitutionally obliged to grant bail to accused persons who have spent more than 180 days on remand without their cases being committed to the High court for trial.
He said the gravity of the offences and the apprehended risk of flight cannot defeat the entitlement to be released.
"It was parliament, not the courts, that found the earlier threshold too generous to the state and too indulgent of delay, and shortened it to 180 days. A provision deliberately tightened in this way is not one a court should approach as though it retained an unspoken discretion to relax it again by another route. Parliament has already weighed the gravity of capital and High-court-only offences...” he ruled.
Furthermore, he said asking the bail applicant to prove a fixed place of abode by producing a certificate of title or utility bills asks more of him than the law requires as neither the Constitution nor the Bail Guidelines requires an applicant to own the home in which he lives.

15 years later, this day is passing by and there is barely any commemoration. Passed by Kyadi on Wednesday and saw a bunch of flowers at the memorial site. This day changed Uganda. Those mall guards, CT police everywhere, SIM card registration regulation, hotel guest registration etc stem from this day. I am not surprised, though. We are known for not being shocked by any scale of catastrophe.
@ZeeroBrain Yes! Besigye days but Matembe and Lukwago weren't on the streets..😀 but this preservation thing you're now pushing is like saying protecting the gains 😃🤣
The wildest part about POVERTY is how much time it steals. Waiting for buses. Calling assistance offices. Comparing grocery prices. Fighting insurance. Sitting at laundromats. Being poor is a second job nobody pays you for.
I think you need to look beyond the bus driver. There is a complete systems breakdown.
1. Where is the road furniture of Railway Crossing?
2. Look at the casual and lazy gesture from the Traffic cop who was supposed to signal to other motorists that a train is coming.
3. In the sweet 90s, when the remnants of Obote II were still running systems, the Police or Railways well-equipped staff would have stopped traffic along that road about 10 minutes before the train approached the Railway Crossing. Look at the time lag.
4. Most Ugandan vehicle drivers are NOT any DIFFERENT from your common boda boda chap.
Hon Muwanga kivumbi on the night of the shooting.
They fired bullets in the garage thinking I was there. They asked who is muwanga kivumbi, one stood and said it's me and they shoot him on spot.
The people who will killed were 10 not 7 as they claim. The 3 bodies were thier fellow officers. That's why they removed clothes from all the bodies not to look like they killed their fellows.
It makes NO sense that railway crossings still don't have automatic barriers. There aren't that many crossings in this country. Surely it can't be too difficult or expense to set them up. #LowIQSociety
.@assempebwa I am admiring your ability to selectively engage, to pick the glossy topics, and sweep the not-so-happy under the carpet. While we developed some kind of friendship over the years of construction of Garuga Road, I am beginning to think that I was very wrong about you: your happy-photos metric was often populated by the images of me on your PR reports, but the work on the ground still remains to be finished.
You now ignore Garuga Road issue as if it is a plague - which, it is.
1. Unfinished pavements
2. No work done on drainage AT ALL
3. Home access eroding with rainfall; none were tarmacked
4. Major junctions with feeder roads are left impassable
5. Major rainfall collection points are draining into people's homes and shops
6. Mud on the road makes it a single lane in dangerous sections
7. Street lights not installed
8. Road signs not installed
9. No zebra crossings
10. Electricity poles encroached on owners' land without permission
11. Access to homes blocked by poles
12. New road growing grass in some sections
And so on.
Meanwhile (without prejudice), rumours have it that some of your colleagues built buildings along the road. This information is also worth investigating.
Now, if you think I will eventually stop asking you for accountability on Garuga Road, you are very wrong. I will continue, first here, and then using other means of communication.
UNRA still has our land title. Maybe this will be the first lawsuit coming your way. Then we add other issues, such as trespass and planting poles without permission.
Wisdom is in solving problems before they mount. The internet is cruel when it comes to keeping receipts. And I just happen to have some time to deal with this.
Why is feedback looked at as hate?
This is a well designed can,the coffee can be packaged better...
We shouldn't seek to be people who only want praise.
Most of the critique I've seen as been very constructive.
In no way does the design look anything like red bull...
I need tech guys (@weskambale) to explain to me how work I researched for days, typed every single character myself, proof read and edited myself comes out as 78% AI generated on the lecturer’s side😭😭😭
Security experts punch holes in Anita Among investigations
53 days after the state launched high-handed investigations, security experts say fundamental procedural errors may have fatally undermined the case, potentially exposing the government to costly legal challenges even if the matter proceeds to trial.
“The proper procedure is to begin with asset tracing. Upon confirming ownership of a company, building or vehicles, investigators should seek a court restraining order to prevent the disposal of identified assets. The money laundering case is then presented in court, and upon conviction, asset recovery is pursued,” he said.
According to the detective, investigators reversed the legally accepted sequence.
“All the required procedures were ignored. They did at the beginning what should have been done at the end. The standard money laundering investigation process is asset tracing, freezing, prosecution and recovery,” he said.
