Ugandan lawmakers pass bill to try civilians before military courts, defying concern and criticism -
💨 Abstract
On May 20, 2025, Ugandan lawmakers approved a government-backed bill allowing civilians to be tried in military courts, ignoring opposition and human rights activists' concerns. The bill permits civilians to be court-martialed if their offenses are linked to military figures, but critics argue it's undemocratic and favors President Museveni.
