Today afternoon, our Deputy President for Buganda Hon. Muwanga Kivumbi, and Hon. Geoffrey Kayemba Ssolo joined the welfare team to visit our comrades at Kitalya prison.
These nine comrades have not yet broken down despite the prolonged detention that is now coming to five years. They even declined to plead guilty to the trumped up charges when the regime tried to coerce them to take that path.
They are strong in spirit and have authored their request to Parliament ahead of the Friday January 31st Supreme Court ruling on the trial of civilians before the court martial. The demands by these political prisoners are as follows;
1. Demand for unconditional release
2. Demand for bail
3. Demand for the dismissal of their case
4. Demand to be sentenced if found guilty
Comrade Kato Umar wrote the note containing their demands on behalf of the other comrades.
We stand with these comrades and we continue to advocate for their unconditional release and an end to the trial of civilians before the court martial.
