Col., at Nansana East 2B Zone in Nansana Municipality, Wakiso District. As a civilian, Kivumbi is not authorized to possess such items.
The case involves allegations that the legislators solicited 20 percent of an anticipated increase in the Uganda Human Rights Commission (UHRC) budget, promising to exert improper influence on the budget committee and the Ministry of Finance.
