Alleged Allied Democratic Forces commander Jamilu Mukulu will remain in custody until February as judicial proceedings continue against him and multiple co-defendants accused of orchestrating deadly attacks across Uganda between 2011 and 2015. The International Crimes Division panel has processed testimony from four witnesses out of 55 anticipated during quarterly hearing sessions, with prosecutors linking the detained suspects to assaults on law enforcement installations, killings of religious leaders, and the 1998 Kichwamba Technical Institute massacre that left over 80 students dead.
Medical examiners confirmed gunshot wounds caused the death of Shia cleric Abdul Khadir Muwaya, while a police surgeon testified that Mukulu displayed normal cognitive functioning during examination. One accomplice accepted a plea arrangement and received a sentence exceeding 17 years for terrorism-related offenses after admitting participation in murder and armed theft operations.
