President Museveni has said the government will soon make a public report on the November 2020 riots in which over 50 people were killed and many others injured.
Museveni said over the weekend while addressing the country on the security situation that in November riots, some of the people killed were rioters, but there was also an issue of stray bullets.
The president said the Police produced a report, and after scrutiny, it will be made available to the public.
The protests that broke out on November 20 went on for two days, saw over 50 people killed and many others injured as security tried to quell the rioters.
The president last year said whereas some of the people killed were rioters, a couple of others were hit by stray bullets but asked police to investigate the protests and come up with a report.
On Saturday, President Museveni reiterated the statements noting that it is unacceptable for security forces to kill anyone for whatsoever reason.
The president noted that such cases of “indiscipline” by security personnel are caused by commanders who don’t adequately brief their juniors on how to deal with the public.
Last year and early this year, the West, especially the European Union and the US have been on Uganda’s case to punish commanders involved in the November 2020 violence.
