The Buganda Road Court has dismissed a case against 14 members of the Forum for Democratic Change (FDC), who were charged with being a common nuisance in August 2024.
However, the Chief Magistrate Ronald Kayizzi told Uncovered Ug news reporters that the case could not proceed due to a lack of prosecution, as no witnesses were available to testify against the accused. As a result, the court set the 14 FDC members free
It was confirmed that between 22nd and 23rd July 2024, the 36 individuals travelled from various parts of Uganda to Kisumu to allegedly provide or receive terrorism training.

Furthermore, the accused included prominent political figures such as MPs Ibrahim Ssemujju Nganda, Kamara Nicholas of Kabale Municipality, former MP Roland Mugume, Deputy Mayor Nyanjura Doreen, Kaija Herod, Kamateneti Ingrid, and several others.
On 5th August 2024, the group was arrested at Katonga as they attempted to deliver a petition to the Kenyan High Commission in Kampala. The petition was related to terrorism charges slapped on 36 of their fellow FDC members, who had been arrested in Kisumu, Kenya.
In conclusion, due to insufficient evidence and the absence of witnesses to substantiate the charges, the court dismissed the case, much to the relief of the accused and their supporters.
