ALN calls on Govt of Uganda to respect Human Rights

ALN notes with concern the political harassment and the brutality by the Government of Uganda, of the opposition political parties.
The continued arrest and detention of citizens, as documented in recent reports by Human Rights Watch entitled, ‘Disclose Evidence Against Human Rights Defender’, ‘Charge or Release Detained Journalist’, and ‘End Trials of Civilians in Military Courts’.
As well as denying citizens the right of assembly and freedom of expression contravenes the International Declaration of Human Rights.
ALN, therefore, calls upon the Government of Uganda to respect human rights and the rule of law.
