A photo posted on Facebook by Yoweri Museveni's Press Secretary has had International newspapers and Twitter alight over the #M7Challenge. Also today Uganda's Judicial High Court made the decision to release Kizza Besigye, Museveni's main political opponent who was arrested on charges of treason after the Presidential elections earlier this year. Justice Wilson Masalu Musene said bail is representative of the notion that an accused person is innocent until proven guilty or if they confess. Following the court's decision to grant him bail, his supporters waiting outside court exploded into celebrations. Videos online show police hitting his supporters with sticks to discourage them from staying in the streets.
