Supreme court to decide on trying civilians in Army courts

The Supreme Court will deliver a ruling on notice in an appeal where the Attorney General argues that it is legal to try civilians in the Army courts. The appeal originated from a July 2021 Constitutional Court ruling that halted the trial of civilians in military courts, stating that they are tribunals solely for disciplining serving military personnel. The Attorney General, dissatisfied with the ruling, obtained a stay of execution in the Supreme Court pending the appeal's hearing and final disposal. The Attorney General, the chief legal advisor of the Government, seeks to hold the five justices of the Supreme Court at fault for concluding that the military court cannot be independent and impartial in its trials. #NTVNews #NTVTonight #NTVWeekendEdition Subscribe to Our Channel For more news visit http://www.ntv.co.ug Follow us on Twitter http://www.twitter.com/ntvuganda Connect with us on Messenger via m.me/NTVUganda
