Uganda Law Group Plans Fund to Help People in Army Courts.

The Uganda Law Society said it will start a special fund to help people who face trial in army courts. The fund aims to give money and legal help to those who need it most.

The group wants to raise 10 billion Ugandan shillings for this work. Arthur Isiko, who manages the law group's finances, shared these plans.

"People from Karamoja pay a lot for lawyers after spending time in army courts. This fund will make things better for them," Isiko said.

The group's second-in-command, Anthony Asiimwe, spoke at a public meeting. He said many people in army courts have no one to speak for them. His group will step up to help these people find justice.

Isaac Ssemakadde leads the law group. He pointed out some issues with past army court cases. The highest court's decision did not say what should happen to everyone who went through army courts before. It only talked about cases that were not finished, leaving many people unsure about their cases.

The new fund aims to fix these problems. It will give more people a chance at fair trials. The law group wants to make sure all of Uganda's people can find help when they need it.

The Uganda Law Society continues to work to protect people's rights. They believe everyone should have someone to speak for them in court, no matter where their case is heard.
