Minister Ruhindi fails to defend Public Order management Bill

Members of parliament on legal and parliamentary Affairs thrown out the committee deputy Attorney General Fred Ruhindi for failure to defend the public order management bill which is under scrutiny.

The deputy Attorney General Fred Ruhindi was asked to leave the committee when he told MPS that he wanted to first harmonize some issues in the bill which raise legalities like on the constitutional ruling of Muwanga kivumbi versus the Attorney General which said that the Inspector of police powers is regulative rather than prohibitive in relation to the exercise of freedom of assembly and peaceful demonstration.

The vice chairperson of the legal committee Baka mugabi thrown out Ruhindi on ground that the issues he was raising could propose for amendment of the bill.

The  MPS who included Abdu Katuntu , Lubega segoona ,  Stephen Baka Mugabi said that the deputy Attorney General should sit together and iron out legal and constitutional  issues in the Public order management Bill  and he comes back before the committee to defend the bill with the minister of internal Affairs who originated the bill next week.

Ruhindi said that he will return to the committee after giving legal advise to the internal Affairs minister on the bill.
