Politicians say Yoweri Museveni is prosecuting opponents on politically motivated charges before 2026 election
Ugandan opposition politicians have accused the president, Yoweri Museveni, of attempting to quash dissent by prosecuting opponents on politically motivated charges in military courts in the run-up to presidential and legislative elections next year.
The government is pushing to introduce a law to allow military tribunals to try civilians despite a supreme court ban on the practice.
