  • Uganda 2015 Human Rights Report
    UGANDA 2015 HUMAN RIGHTS REPORT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Uganda is a constitutional republic led since 1986 by President Yoweri Museveni of the ruling National Resistance Movement (NRM) party. Voters re-elected Museveni to a fourth five-year term and returned an NRM majority to the unicameral Parliament in 2011. While the election marked an improvement over previous elections, it was marred by irregularities. Civilian authorities generally maintained effective control over the security forces. The three most serious human rights problems in the country included: lack of respect for the integrity of the person (unlawful killings, torture, and other abuse of suspects and detainees); restrictions on civil liberties (freedoms of assembly, expression, the media, and association); and violence and discrimination against marginalized groups, such as women (sexual and gender-based violence), children (sexual abuse and ritual killing), persons with disabilities, and the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and intersex (LGBTI) community. Other human rights problems included harsh prison conditions, arbitrary and politically motivated arrest and detention, lengthy pretrial detention, restrictions on the right to a fair trial, official corruption, societal or mob violence, trafficking in persons, and child labor. Although the government occasionally took steps to punish officials who committed abuses, whether in the security services or elsewhere, impunity was a problem. Section 1. Respect for the Integrity of the Person, Including Freedom from: a. Arbitrary or Unlawful Deprivation of Life There were several reports the government or its agents committed arbitrary or unlawful killings. On September 8, media reported security forces in Apaa Parish in the north shot and killed five persons during a land dispute over the government’s border demarcation.

  • 165 Chapter Six International Crimes Division of the High
    CHAPTER SIX INTERNATIONAL CRIMES DIVISION OF THE HIGH COURT OF UGANDA: CHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES 6.1 Introduction Domestic investigations and prosecutions, where they are properly undertaken, are said to be the most effective process in ensuring accountability for international crimes. This is because states usually have the best access to evidence and witnesses and have their own enforcement mechanisms.1 Domestic prosecutions are also said to foster a greater sense of local ownership, which may in turn enhance local impact of trials and any potential deterrent effect. This best explains why under the ICC complementarity regime, domestic jurisdiction retain the primary responsibility to prosecute cases if they are ‘able’ and ‘willing’ to carry out investigations and prosecutions.2 To satisfy the ICC complementarity regime and to fulfil government’s commitment under the Agreement on Accountability and Reconciliation, the government of Uganda through a Legal Notice created a new Division of the High Court – the ICD to adjudicate international crimes.3 The creation of the ICD was in accordance to the Constitution of Uganda4 that provides that courts of judicature consisting of the Supreme Court, Court of Appeal, High Court and subordinate courts shall exercise judicial powers in Uganda as Parliament may establish by 5 law. The High Court of Uganda has original and unlimited jurisdiction in all matters and the 6 law may confer on it, appellate and other jurisdiction, thus, a division to specifically handle 1 Office of the Prosecutor ‘Paper on some Policy Issues before the Office of the Prosecutor’ ICC-OTP 2003 part 1 para 4 http://amicc.org/docs/OcampoPolicyPaper9_03.pdf (accessed 9 January 2012).

It provides a typology of the insecurity incidents which occurred in areas of Bukomansimbi, Lwengo, Rakai, Sembabule, Kalungu, Nyendo, Lyantonde districts and Kingo sub-county and examines the steps which government and other stakeholders have taken to address the problem. Using a qualitative approach, interviews were conducted in the affected areas with LCI chairpersons, locals and area members of parliament together with library research to explain why these measures have failed to reduce the high level of crime that takes place in and around the country. The article focuses on three related issues: the political economy of the Uganda state;catalysts for insecurity and the manner in which the government and other actors have sought to manage the country's insecurity situation.
