UK Minister asks Museveni to curb police violence on civilians

 

It seems police violence and brutality on members of opposition parties has caught the international eye. This is because the United Kingdom (UK) minister in charge of Africa Henry Bellingham has asked president Museveni to curb the police violence on civilians. Bellingham is in Uganda’s capital city Kampala on an official visit.

He jetted into Uganda on Monday and today he has held talks with Ugandan president Museveni. On Wednesday Bellingham will visit Singo military school to see by himself whether the funds UK has been channeling to Uganda for military developed has been used properly.

A source that over heard the details of the meeting Bellingham held with President Museveni, intimated to us that the UK minister asked president Museveni why there is too much demonstrations, police brutality, corruption, lawlessness, land grabbing and reported cases of vote rigging in Uganda.

Bellingham reportedly asked Museveni to control acts of violence his soldiers and police commit on civilians because such acts one day might force the International Court of Justice to probe the leaders of Uganda.
