The Ugandan military court has traveled to Somalia to try two Ugandan army commanders, who are accused of ordering soldiers to flee during an attack by Al-Shabaab on a Ugandan army base. Buulomareer nests.<\/p>\n

The Ugandan Armed Forces Court, presided over by Brig Freeman Mugabe, traveled to Somalia this week where they set up a seat at the headquarters of the Ugandan army, to prosecute cases involving UPDF soldiers.<\/p>\n

According to the Ugandan military, the top of the list is a case involving two senior officers, who are accused of cowardice in violation of Article 120 of the Uganda Defense Forces Act.<\/p>\n

The prosecution said that Maj Steven Oluka who is 47 years old and Maj Zadock Obor who is 25 years old, did not encourage the officers and the Ugandan forces under their command to bravely fight Al Shabaab.<\/p>\n

Al-Shabaab attacked the Ugandan army base in Buulo Mareer in May this year, where they killed 50 Ugandan army soldiers who were working at the base.<\/p>\n

When asked why the military court moved to Mogadishu, Gen Mugabe said that they decided to get the witnesses in the cases since most of them were in the operation area.<\/p>\n

The court will be in Somalia for a period of two weeks to hear the cases, and at the end of the sessions, whoever is found guilty will be given appropriate sentences.<\/p>\n

However, the sentences will depend on the circumstances of the crimes and the evidence brought to court.<\/p>\n
