The Government of Uganda through the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) has withdrawn charges of Money Laundering against Human Rights Lawyer, Nicholas Opiyo who also doubles as Executive Director of Chapter 4 Uganda.

According to a withdrawal from dated 10th September 2021 signed by the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) Ms Jane Frances Abodo, the decided to discontinue the proceedings against Nicholas Opio in accordance with Anti- Money Laundering Act (136 (i) (a) as Amended.

Ms Abodo addressed the withdrawal from to the Chief Magistrate Anti Corruption Court where Opiyo was being tried over the case.

Opiyo was arrested in December last year after he received money on behalf of his Organisation Chapter 4 which the State claimed was intended to fund terrorism activities.

Opiyo who spent the entire Christmas festive season in prison denied the charges but was later produced in court where he applied for bail and was released.

Early last week, the Anti Corruption Court asked the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) to commit Opiyo for trial after his lawyers petitioned court over the stalled court proceedings failure to do so would compel the court to dismiss the case.

However, it has now emerged that the DPP has written to court on 10th September withdrawing the case against him.
