On Tuesday, July 23rd, the March to Parliament, a protest against government corruption, began with less momentum than expected due to heavy security deployment in Kampala. Several protesters were arrested, charged, and remanded to prison, raising serious concerns about the government's stance on corruption and its respect for constitutional rights to free assembly and peaceful protest.
