Prosecutors have evidence against Kizza Besigye and two other men for planning treason against Uganda. The state says Besigye wanted to kill President Museveni and hurt the country's security. His helpers are Obeid Lutale and Captain Denis Oola from the army. Courts will hear charges about trying to overthrow the government. Security agents recorded secret meetings that show their plans.
Andrew Wilson worked as a spy for Uganda's military intelligence team. He met with Besigye and his group across several countries during 2023 and 2024. The meetings happened at Geneva, Brussels and Athens where they talked about attacking Uganda. Wilson recorded everything on video and audio for the government. Besigye asked for weapons, poison and fake money to damage the economy.
The evidence shows Besigye wanted to attack military bases around Uganda. He gave Wilson a list of targets like Simba Barracks and other army locations. Besigye also requested training for 36 supporters at Kenya but police arrested them first. The group planned to use drones for killing the president and missiles for destroying aircraft. All three men face serious punishment if courts find them guilty.
