PHOTOS: A frail-looking Kizza Besigye appears in the dock at Buganda Road Chief Magistrate Court where he is charged alongside Samuel Lubega Mukaaku, after they were arrested in downtown Kampala while demonstrating against high commodity prices in Uganda in 2022. His lawyers, led by Erias Lukwago, have argued that the court proceedings should not continue, when Dr Besigye is in such a state as this amounts to violation of his human rights. Despite a Supreme Court ruling last month halting the trial of civilians in military courts, Dr Besigye remains on remand facing court martial charges. #MonitorUpdates 📸: @abubakerlubowa

UPDATE: Four-time presidential candidate, Dr Kizza Besigye, has been brought to Buganda Road Chief Magistrate Court after missing the previous hearing. He had informed the court on Tuesday via a letter delivered by the Prisons Service, that he was indisposed and unable to attend. It has now been a week since he began his hunger strike. Dr Besigye is charged alongside Samuel Lubega Mukaaku, after they were arrested in downtown Kampala while demonstrating against high commodity prices in Uganda in 2022. Despite a Supreme Court ruling last month that civilians should not be tried in military courts, Besigye remains on remand facing court martial charges. #MonitorUpdates 📸: Abubaker Lubowa

African culture is highly patriarchal, with men expected to be strong, bold, and powerful. A man who is subjected to violence and torture, especially by a woman, is looked down on #MonitorUpdates
