KAMPALA-UGANDA/NEWSDAY: Controversial lawyer Male Mabirizi was finally captured in Monday evening, his friend also a lawyer Isaac Ssemakadde said via Twitter.

He has been on the run after court sentenced him to 18 months over court contempt.

“Hard Guy (Mabirizi) was captured by junta soldiers—about 50 of them—from the bush this afternoon,” Ssemakadde said.

But he quickly added “We suspect it was betrayal. They are taking him for torture But he is ready for everything. And we are ready. Mubere bakakamu.”

Ssemakadde who didn’t go into details swore the war was continuing.

Kampala metropolitan police spokesperson Luke Oweyesigire said “Mabirizi has been on the run but we have strated him from Banda as he was entering Kyambogo University”.

Court issued an arrest warrant on February 15 addressing it to all police officers.

“Whereas Male Mabirizi has been found liable in contempt of a court order, this is to command you to arrest and deliver the said person to prison mentioned in the committal warrant with immediate effect,” the warrant read in part.

Recently, the court ordered to pay a fine of shs300 million over contempt of court but the state has since accused him of continued attacks against judicial officers.

Justice Ssekaana last week said Mabirizi has never presented himself nor filed any affidavits to defend himself over the accusations of court contempt despite being summoned.

The judge said the only option was sending him to prison.

“Mabirizi never presented himself to court after being summoned and neither did he file affidavits to deny the allegations against him. Court has been left with no option but to order for his arrest on sight and be taken to prison for 18 months,”Ssekaana ruled.

Days after Ssekaana’s warrant, Mabirizi petitioned the IGG to have the judge investigated o we illicit wealth.
