We call on the judiciary to dismiss this case for want of prosecution. Justice delayed is justice denied.

Another blow to justice in Uganda. The #Stanbic12 #stopEACOP activists were denied bail again despite prolonged detention under the guise of an “advanced” case. Remanded until Jan 14 as courts rush to conclude, not to free. This is systemic injustice.
