Bobi Wine and Kizza Besigye have been accused of conducting unlawful activities.

The petitioner also sued the Attorney General for failing to stop the unlawful activities.

Today, we were supposed to appear in Rukungiri &Mbarara Courts at the same time, where we face similar trumped-up charges since 2017! There was miscommunication. Now summoned by both courts to appear again on same day!
We shall overcome.
