As Uganda heads into what many observers describe as a politically tense period ahead of the next general elections, reports indicate that two prominent civil society leaders and lawyers are being held by security operatives as authorities intensify efforts to locate veteran politician and women's rights activist Miria Matembe.
According to reports, Matembe has remained out of public view since security personnel reportedly raided her home in Luzira last week. Her whereabouts remain unknown, with speculation suggesting that she may have left the country, although this has not been independently confirmed.
Those reportedly detained are Sarah Bireete, the Executive Director of the Centre for Constitutional Governance, and Eunice Musiime, the Executive Director of Alliance for Women Advocating for Change.GET FULL STORY HERE.
