A Ugandan state witness, private investigator Andrew Wilson, testified in High Court alleging Dr. Kizza Besigye, a leading opposition politician, plotted to overthrow the government. Wilson claims he used a hidden camera in a power bank to record Besigye discussing acquiring weapons. The recordings reportedly detail plans that included a potential bombing of the popular Cafe Javas chain. These allegations form part of the state’s case against Besigye, though details of the broader charges remain limited. The Observer Media Ltd. initially reported the claims made by the state’s witness. This testimony raises significant political tensions within Uganda as Besigye has long been a vocal critic of the current administration.
