A proposal by President Yoweri Museveni to amend the constitution to deny bail to rioters, rapists, murderers and economic sub tours needs further consultations.

This is according to the new Attorney General Peter Nyombi who was vetted by parliament appointments committee on Tuesday.

Nyombi says the public and other stake holders need to put in their input before the final decision is made since such law may be misused for personal reasons by others.

While some sections of the public like women activists have welcomed the President’s proposal, some have criticized it as aimed at easily detaining opposition supporters for long periods of time.
