Uganda's former intelligence chief and critic of president Yoweri Museveni general David Sejusa has appeared at a court martial in the capital, Kampala. Among the charges he faces are being absent without leave and participating in partisan political activities. He was however remanded till February 9th when his case will be heard. Gen Sejusa went into self-imposed exile in London in 2013 after claiming that president Museveni was grooming his son to be Uganda’s next leader, but he returned to the country in 2014.
