The flagbearer for NUP Robert Kyagulanyi Ssentamu has dragged the president of Uganda Yoweri Kaguta Museveni to International Criminal Court for the continuous brutality to Ugandans.

Ktagulanyi through his Lawyers they want the president to be petitioned and also put a ban on all these travels.

Kyagulanyi said that President Museveni was violating the rights of Ugandans even as the country heads to elections.

He says that the basis for their petition which was filled by their lawyers in Uganda and abroad is the violence that is being meted upon his supporters and team and the over 50 people that were killed in November last year.

Kyagulanyi says that their petition has enough evidence against President Museveni, and security Minister General Elly Tumwine among others.

He adds they took the matter to the ICC because President Museveni has a firm grip on the domestic courts of law.

The Hague-based court prosecutes the most serious crimes that are of concern to the international community. These include crimes of genocide, crimes against humanity, and war crimes.
