Amnesty accuses Ugandan forces of election abuses

Amnesty International has accused Ugandan security forces of killing at least 16 people and arbitrarily detaining hundreds of opposition supporters during the January general elections. The report urges President Yoweri Museveni's government to investigate these human rights violations, with no officer held accountable three months after the events. Security forces reportedly used unlawful lethal force, particularly in Butambala and Bulenga.
