Miria Matembe detained after security raid on Luzira home, charged with promoting sectarianism and granted bail

According to ChimpReports, security operatives raided the Luzira home of former Ethics and Integrity minister Miria Matembe, 73, after which her whereabouts were unknown for several days. Pastor Joseph Sserwadda said President Museveni ordered her release after religious leaders raised the matter with him, and that she appeared in court the same evening. She was charged with promoting sectarianism over comments in a television interview and was granted bail by Principal Magistrate Atim Sheilla Gloria on grounds including ill health and advanced age.
