BAIL IS NOT ABOUT WHO IS RICH. IT IS ABOUT WHO CAN BRING YOU BACK TO COURT.

Most notably in a 71 page judgement her lordship Suzan held,

"The court's primary interest is to ensure that the accused remains available to answer the charges against them... the focus is on whether the surety can secure the accused's attendance in court, rather than on whether the surety possesses the means to satisfy the bond."

The decision in Hon. Muwanga Kivumbi Muhammad & Others v Uganda is much bigger than a ruling granting bail. It is a masterclass on what courts should and should not consider when deciding whether a person deserves temporary liberty.

First, the Court dismantled one of the biggest misconceptions in criminal practice: a substantial surety is not necessarily a wealthy surety. The value of a surety lies in moral authority, proximity, and the ability to compel an accused person to return to court not in the amount of money they can lose if the accused absconds. That is why the Court accepted parents, siblings, spouses, aunts and close relatives who knew the applicants intimately, while rejecting some proposed sureties who simply lacked sufficient knowledge of the applicants' lives, despite appearing respectable.

Second, the judgment sends a powerful message about substance over technicalities. Faced with expired National Identity Cards, the Court took judicial notice of NIRA's well-known renewal delays and refused to punish citizens for administrative inefficiency.

Once identity had been satisfactorily established, an expired card alone was not enough to defeat a bail application.

Third, the Court emphasised that proving a fixed place of abode is an evidential exercise, not a game of speculation. Where applicants produced credible LC1 introductory letters confirming residence, and the State offered nothing beyond bare denials, the Court accepted that the applicants had discharged the burden. Mere assertions from the prosecution could not outweigh uncontroverted evidence.

Perhaps the most refreshing feature of the judgment is its realism. The Court did not evaluate people on paper alone. It questioned sureties, tested their relationships, assessed whether they genuinely knew the applicants, and even scrutinised inconsistencies where necessary.

This evening, I concluded my inspection at Nabumali Senior Secondary School, where I uncovered serious irregularities.

Government is providing funding under the Universal Secondary Education (USE) programme for close to 1,000 students, yet during my visit, I personally conducted a physical headcount in every class and found only 240 students present.

This raises serious questions. What are the local leaders doing? Where are the Inspector of Schools, the District Education Officer (DEO), and all the other responsible officials? Who is benefiting from the funds allocated for students who are not there?

I also established that students are being charged between UGX 71,000 and UGX 110,000. Who authorized these charges in a government USE school?

These allegations point to possible abuse of public funds and violations of government policy. The State House anti-corruption unit and other responsible authorities will investigate these matters thoroughly, and anyone found culpable should be held accountable in accordance with the law.

إهداء لكل واحد اختار الإنبطا ح

الحكم الإنجليزي مارك هالسي عن مهزلة مباراة مصر والأرجنتين :

“الآن، كما نعلم، ووفقًا لبروتوكول المجلس الدولي لكرة القدم (IFAB)، تتم مراجعة جميع الأهداف.

الهدف الثاني الذي سجله منتخب مصر عن طريق زيكو… يا له من هدف رائع.

لكننا رأينا هذا الهدف يُلغى بعد أن عاد حكم الفيديو إلى لقطة سابقة بداعي وجود مخالفة على مارتينيز.

ومن الناحية القانونية، هذا صحيح، لأن تقنية VAR يحق لها مراجعة اللعبة ابتداءً من تلك اللحظة، طالما أنها ضمن نفس مرحلة الهجمة.

لكن السؤال هو: هل كانت الحالة تستحق بالفعل تدخل تقنية VAR؟ وهل كان هناك خطأ واضح وجلي يستوجب هذا التدخل؟

بالنسبة لي، أقول: لا.

ومع ذلك، تدخلت التقنية، وطلبت من الحكم مراجعة اللقطة على الشاشة، وفي النهاية احتُسبت مخالفة لصالح الأرجنتين، وأُلغي الهدف.

وهنا تكمن المشكلة بالنسبة لي، وهي عدم الاتساق في تطبيق التقنية.

ففي لقطة أخرى، تقدم صلاح إلى داخل منطقة الجزاء، وتعرض لعرقلة من مدافع أرجنتيني، ثم انطلقت الأرجنتين في الهجمة التالية وسجلت الهدف الثالث لتصبح النتيجة 3-2.

إذا كنتم قد ألغيتُم هدف زيكو بسبب التدخل على مارتينيز، باعتباره مخالفة على اللاعب الأرجنتيني، فمن المفترض أن يُطبَّق المعيار نفسه تمامًا على لقطة صلاح. إن الحالتين متشابهتان.

إذًا، لماذا لم تتدخل تقنية VAR في لقطة صلاح؟

لأنه لو تدخلت، لكان يجب احتساب ركلة جزاء لمصر.

وهنا تحديدًا يظهر عدم الاتساق.

BREAKING: The Egyptian FA have released a statement claiming they "cannot remain silent regarding the referee decisions" following their defeat to Argentina in the World Cup 🚨

[SethOfficial @UTD_Seth001]

🚨Fabio Capello on the officiating in Argentina vs Egypt:

🗣️ “I have no problem accepting defeat when the better team wins.

What I cannot accept is inconsistency.

Egypt scored a goal that looked perfectly legitimate, yet VAR searched every possible angle until it found a reason to rule it out. Later, when Egypt were asking for major decisions inside Argentina’s penalty area, that same level of investigation disappeared. That is what frustrates players, coaches and supporters.

Football is built on trust. If one incident deserves three minutes of review, then every major incident deserves the same attention. You cannot apply one standard to one team and a different standard to another. That is where people begin to question the integrity of the decisions.

Argentina have world-class players. Nobody doubts that. Messi, Martínez and the rest have enough quality to win matches on their own. But when controversial decisions repeatedly fall in one direction, it becomes impossible to ignore the conversation. Egypt earned the right to lose because Argentina were better—not because the biggest moments seemed to be interpreted differently.

The saddest part is that tonight people will remember the referee more than the football. Egypt leave with disappointment, but also with unanswered questions. And whenever supporters spend more time discussing officiating than the players, football itself has failed.”
