Le pr\u00e9sident ougandais Yoweri Museveni a promulgu\u00e9 une loi autorisant les tribunaux militaires \u00e0 juger des civils dans certaines circonstances, a annonc\u00e9 lundi le Parlement.<\/p>\n
La Cour supr\u00eame avait jug\u00e9 ces proc\u00e8s inconstitutionnels dans un arr\u00eat rendu plus t\u00f4t cette ann\u00e9e. Les juges avaient fait valoir que les tribunaux militaires n’\u00e9taient ni impartiaux ni comp\u00e9tents pour exercer des fonctions judiciaires.<\/p>\n
Le Parlement ougandais a adopt\u00e9 un amendement le mois dernier pour rem\u00e9dier \u00e0 certaines de ces difficult\u00e9s, malgr\u00e9 le boycott des d\u00e9put\u00e9s de l’opposition, qui estimaient que le nouveau projet de loi violait la d\u00e9cision de la Cour supr\u00eame.<\/p>\n
Les militants des droits humains accusent depuis longtemps le gouvernement ougandais d’utiliser les tribunaux militaires pour pers\u00e9cuter les opposants au pr\u00e9sident.<\/p>\n
Yoweri Museveni a pass\u00e9 pr\u00e8s de 40 ans au pouvoir. Ses collaborateurs ont ni\u00e9 les accusations des groupes de d\u00e9fense des droits humains et ont affirm\u00e9 que seuls les civils qui utilisent des armes \u00e0 feu pour commettre des violences politiques \u00e9taient poursuivis devant ces tribunaux.<\/p>\n
\u00ab\u00a0La loi permettra de lutter avec fermet\u00e9 contre les criminels arm\u00e9s violents, de dissuader la formation de groupes politiques militants cherchant \u00e0 saboter les processus d\u00e9mocratiques et de garantir que la s\u00e9curit\u00e9 nationale repose sur des bases solides\u00a0\u00bb, a \u00e9crit le porte-parole de l’arm\u00e9e, Chris Magezi, sur X apr\u00e8s l’adoption du projet de loi en mai.<\/p>\n
Dans une affaire r\u00e9cente tr\u00e8s m\u00e9diatis\u00e9e, le proc\u00e8s militaire du leader de l’opposition Kizza Besigye a \u00e9t\u00e9 transf\u00e9r\u00e9 \u00e0 un tribunal civil apr\u00e8s la d\u00e9cision de la Cour supr\u00eame de janvier.<\/p>\n
Les tribunaux ougandais pourraient encore intervenir contre la nouvelle loi s’ils recevaient une requ\u00eate citoyenne.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
