PRESIDENT YOWERI MUSEVENI SUMMONS NRM MPs FOR A RETREAT AS HE INSISTS ON AMENDING LAW TO SCRAP BAIL FOR CAPITAL OFFENDERS.

Greetings Ugandans and Africans.

Am entailing this little missive over the proposal by President Museveni to amend the Law on Bail application especially for Murder, Aggravated Rape and Defilement Suspects.

First and foremost, will President Museveni and the MPs start the amendment by repealing the Law that says "Suspects" in Uganda; "Should Be Charged / Produced in Court in Not More Than 48 Hours" and "Suspects remain Innocent Until Proven Guilty by Court" ❓.

Before the NRM MPs move to second this amendment, i beg they should first think twice and ask themselves; 1. How will the impact of this Law be ❓.

2. Who shall be the victims of this Law! Suppose it's you or any of your relatives, how will you feel well knowing you or your arrested relative is completely innocent but is just suffering the fate of bad legislation ❓.

3. How speedy shall the trials of the arrested Capital Offenders be to ensure their innocence is (are) proved by the Courts of Law within short durations from the time (date) of their arrest ❓.

4. Regarding the challenges in number of Judges in the Country and Case Backlogs, will these kinds of Laws cripple the Wheels of "Justice" ❓.

5. How will it be determined that, the person arrested and denied Bail is Prime Suspect who committed the Murder or Rape ?.

6. Assume later on after the Trial, the Person is found to be Innocent and yet he or she has served Jail for some time without commiting the alleged Crime ❓.

7. What would be his or her remedy; Financial Compensation or Nothing ❓.

All these should be put into consideration before taking steps to amend that Law.

Surgeons fined $60,000 and banned permanently from profession after billionaire died during penis enlargement surgery.

Surgeons have been banned from practicing plastic surgery after a billionaire patient died during a penis enlargement procedure. Belgian-Israeli diamond dealer Ehud Arye Laniado, 65, died of a heart attack during the procedure to enlarge his penis at the Saint-Honore-Ponthieu aesthetic clinic in Paris. His star surgeon, known as Guy H, was known for operating on wealthy clients and he treated Ehud two to four times a year in procedures costing tens of thousands of euros. Wealthy Omega Diamonds owner Ehud would be operated on out of office hours. He had been having injections into his penis to make it appear larger. An investigation was swiftly opened into potential manslaughter chargers following his death, though it soon shifted to charges of failing to assist a person in danger, drug offences and practicing medicine without a licence. A Paris court on Wednesday suspended Guy H's licence and sentenced him to 15 months behind bars. His surgeon, who had been...
