Besigye not returning to Nakawa Court over the forged “Treason” Charges!

besigye-court-25-01-2017

Kizza Besigye: “It’s costly both in time and resources to keep coming to this court for charges that are not going anywhere. I would like to respectfully tell you that I will not be coming back to this court over this matter” (NBS TV Uganda, 25.01.2017)

It’s been now months upon months end. He has been back and forward between the courts and the prisons to address a treason charge that has gone nowhere. It is in the air, but not letting the man himself breath. The man we are talking about is the Forum for Democratic Change (FDC) Dr. Kizza Besigye get rest.

The Police Force and the legal instruments continues to pound on the man, they continue to fling his flesh into court, without new evidence or affidavits to salvage a case; therefore the preliminary acts should be to dissolve and stop working on the case. Stop wasting time in the courtroom and use of space for real cases of breaches of law. That is not something the National Resistance Movement regime has any indication of caring about. They just want to silence the Opposition leader and continue to keep him at bay. Since he has bail-hearings coming every month at the Nakawa Court and the Kabale Magistrate Court that still works on forged case since Walk to Work demonstrations back-in-the-day.

They are continuing to issuing new legal breaches without evidence or any concurring acts of evil intent. This is happening on a basis of silencing him and stopping him from having an ordinary life and stopping his work as a political figure in Uganda. That is the real wish of the Courts and the NRM Regime. To stop Besigye from acting and talking, questioning and achieving the dismantling of their rule.

The ploy and gig is up. It should be in the wind. The horns of deluded mindful ignorance of the ruling regime should be stop and the curve of just rule should appear. However, the reality is that FDC and Besigye can still get under hot water and taken by the law without any consideration.

We are here at a crossroad or junction where the fraud and fiction is more close to the reality than the truth and facts. If mere facts, evidence or even affidavits actually presented to the court, if witnesses and proof of the alleged crimes had materialized to the court. Than the case would matter and the alleged treason charge would mean something. However, at this point it don’t and it doesn’t, it is mere fiction from the NRM regime. A tale of long standing grievences against the opposition and their leaders continue with impunity and injustice. Peace.
