Kenyan lawyer Martha Karua is challenging her recent deportation from Uganda in the High Court Criminal Division in Kampala. Karua, lead counsel for Dr. Kizza Besigye and Hajji Obeid Lutale, alleges the deportation prevents her from adequately representing her clients. The challenge seeks a court order to overturn the deportation and allow her to participate in the ongoing trial. Details surrounding the deportation remain unclear, but Karua asserts it hinders the defendants’ right to legal representation. This development raises concerns about political interference in the judicial process within Uganda. The case is expected to shed light on the reasons behind the deportation and its legality.
