KAMPALA: Police have summoned a lawyer, Isaac Ssemakadde, in connection with attacking Justice Musa Ssekaana on social media.
Ssemakadde, who is the executive director of Legal Brian Trust, has been asked to appear before the Criminal Investigations Directorate next Monday and explain himself over alleged offensive communication against Justice Ssekaana.
“You are required to report to CID headquarters Kibuli on February 28, 2022, at 10.00hrs and you will particularly report to officer-in-charge of cybercrime, D/ASP Henry Kayiza, who will guide you on what is required,” read in part the police summons to Ssemakadde.
The summons come weeks after Justice Ssekaana had fined Lawyer Male Mabirizi Shs300m for allegedly attacking judges on social media and contempt of court.
Mabirizi was also arrested by police on Monday, February 21, 2022, following last week’s arrest warrant notice issued out by Justice Ssekaana.
Court of Appeal Judge Christopher Madrama Izama was set to hear Mabirizi’s application in which he was seeking to block his pending arrest by the police on grounds that he was not given a fair hearing.
