The NRM Caucus has agreed to support the proposal of trying civilians accused of illegally possessing specific firearms before the Court Martial first. They will, however, be given the prerogative to appeal their sentences before other courts. The revelation was made by Hamson Obua, Government Chief Whip in a statement he issued while announcing what transpired in the Caucus meeting held today, Friday 21, Feb 2025, at State House Entebbe. The Caucus discussed the principles that informed the UPDF Bill, which was recently withdrawn in order to incorporate changes following the January 2025, Supreme Court ruling that halted the trial of civilians before the General Court Martial.
