Two prominent Kenyan human rights advocates were unexpectedly detained in Uganda last month, spending three and a half months under house arrest. The activists, involved in advocacy for marginalized communities, were reportedly facing pressure from authorities regarding their work. They’ve since returned home, where they are seeking clarification and assurances of their safety. The Ugandan government has not yet issued a formal statement, raising questions about the situation. International human rights organizations are monitoring the situation, with calls for transparency and respect for civil liberties. The Kenyan government has pledged to investigate.
