Ugandans petition ICC to probe Museveni over human rights violations
It seems Ugandan president Gen. Yoweri Museveni is soon becoming the hunted. Sections of Ugandans have written a secret letter to the international Criminal Court (ICC) asking it to probe the increasing human rights abuse in Uganda reportedly by president Museveni using police and other security agencies.
In their petition the petitioners alleged that president Museveni has used police and other security agencies to violet human rights. Sources are shocked that the matter has gone far because some top city criminal lawyers in Kampala have been invited to the ICC. They include Samuel Muyizzi and Caleb Alaka. Alaka and Muyizzi will leave Uganda for ICC on 30th March 2nd April 2012 respectively.
When contacted, Caleb Alaka said theirs is a study trip at the pre trial chamber of the ICC and they are expected to discuss several procedural matters and cases before this Court from the great lakes region and most probably some matters touching the indictments of LRA top commanders etc.
