The High Court in Kampala has scheduled dates for the filing of submissions by Dr. Kizza Besigye lawyers against the Sh30 million cash bail issued by the Buganda Road Court magistrate Siena Owomugisha to Dr Besigye on charges of inciting violence.

On Wednesday, court sitting at BugandaRoad charged Dr. Kizza Besigye with inciting of violence after he protested against skyrocketing prices of commodities in the country. The magistrate then ordered him to pay Sh30m  cash bail and Sh70 millions non cash bail by each of his two sureties; Wafula Ogutu , former leader of opposition in parliament and Harold Kaijja, FDC deputy Secretary General, to allow him granted bail.

However, Dr Besigye through his lawyers declined to pay the money asked for noting that it was too much for him to pay which got him to Luzira where he’s currently detained.

“Buganda Rd Court, where I’ve been charged with “Inciting violence”, has just granted me cash bail of Shs 30m! I consider this an extension of the injustices I’ve faced for long. I’ve asked my lawyers to appeal it as I endure remand. All Ugandans should stand firm Vs injustices,” he tweeted.” Besigye said in a social media post.

He further said; “we’re requested to file a written submission by May30, and the state responds by June2. The ruling will be delivered on June6, 2022.”
