🚨 WHERE ARE THE MISSING UGANDANS? JOEL SSENYONYI DEMANDS ANSWERS IN PARLIAMENT!
Uganda's Parliament has debated major concerns surrounding national security, human rights, missing persons, detention practices and the country's crime statistics.
During the session, Leader of the Opposition Joel Ssenyonyi challenged the Minister of Internal Affairs, Professor Ephraim Kamuntu, over the government's response to reports of missing Ugandans and individuals allegedly held in ungazetted detention facilities.
Ssenyonyi questioned whether authorities are respecting the constitutional requirement to produce arrested individuals before court within 48 hours.
The debate also examined crime statistics presented to Parliament, including reported homicide cases and the large proportion of investigations that remain under inquiry.
MPs further raised concerns about proposals to discourage police bonds and court bail, arguing that such measures could undermine the presumption of innocence and worsen prison congestion.
Other key issues included inadequate funding for the sub-county policing model, the need for expanded CCTV surveillance and interventions addressing youth unemployment and poverty.
