Another Journalist Clobbered Covering ‘Free Bobi Wine’ Protests

Mujungu whimpering in pain

Barely a week after government and security agencies issued an apology for assaulting and torturing journalists in the their line of duty, NBS scribe on Friday suffered same wrath.

Joshua Mujungu who was covering protests in Kamwokya a Kampala suburb was beaten by the army as they dispersed protesters.

The demos erupted following the re-arrest of Robert Kyagulanyi aka Bobi Wine.

Mujungu is currently receiving treatment at City Hospital.

Last week, President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni and Army Commander Gen. David Muhoozi warned errant soldiers who assault journalists while they are executing their duties.

Museveni ordered the army to arrest soldiers who were behind the assault.
