Troubled Members of Parliament Muhammad Ssegirinya and Allan Ssewanyana will spend more two weeks in prison following Court’s decision to adjourn their case to December 21, 2021.
Prosecution led by Richard Birivumbuka, who is the Masaka resident chief state attorney informed court that investigations into the legislator’s second file of murder are not yet complete, and therefore asked for more time.
Court accepted prosecution’s prayer and adjourned the hearing to December 21, 2021. Ssegirinya told court that, “I am not even allowed to attend Juma prayers or associate with other prisoners.”
Court last month had ordered that Ssegirinya be allowed to be taken to a private hospital of his choice to receive treatment as his health was deteriorating. The MP however told court that this was also not respected.
