{UAH} POLICE STATEMENT ON HON. KASIBANTE RALLY

PRESS RELEASE:

We have received letters from Hon. Moses Kasibante and Mr. Erias
Lukwago, concerning a consultative meeting in Rubaga North, tomorrow
9th January, 2014.

The police recognise the right of Members of Parliament to hold
consultative or any other meeting in their constituency and we would
ordinarily have no objection to such a meeting as Hon. Kasibante has
planned.

However, Hon. Kasibante's letter of notice and the letter of Mr. Erias
Lukwago writing as Lord Mayor refer to the same meeting. In fact, in
the letter of Mr. Erias Lukwago, states, that he is organizing a
meeting in conjunction with Hon. Kasibante.

Noteworthy, in light of the advice of the Attorney General, Mr. Erias
Lukwago cannot lawfully organise a meeting as Lord Mayor. It is
therefore unlawful for Hon. Kasibante to organise a meeting with Mr.
Lukwago Erias as Lord Mayor.

Accordingly, we have no option but to advice that Hon. Kasibante
should not go ahead with the planned meeting as it is likely to cause
a breach of peace.

We advice, the general to public not to participant in tomorrow's
planned meeting as it is illegal.
