Courts charged Charles Twine Mansio with serious crimes at Buganda Road on Thursday. Twine worked as the main spokesperson for police investigators before moving to Parliament. Officials also charged Mitala Noah, who goes under the name Noah Mutwe. Both men face eight criminal counts for messages sent between January 2024 and May 2025. Prosecutors say Twine encouraged Mutwe to attack Uganda's president.
Police claim Twine sent electronic messages asking Mutwe to kill President Museveni and army chief Muhoozi Kainerugaba. Court papers show Twine called Speaker Anita Among a rotten person who sponsors violence. He also labeled Deputy Speaker Thomas Tayebwa as a money launderer and fraudster. Twine described General Muhoozi as a fat pig and General James Birungi as a killer.
Authorities say Twine made hateful comments about the Bahima ethnic group. He claimed the entire tribe consists of murderers, according to prosecution documents. Computer misuse laws cover most of the charges against both suspects. Twine vanished on Wednesday after meeting police bosses at Naguru headquarters. His family reported him missing when his phone stopped working after the appointment.
