Court rejects digital evidence in Besigye case

Justice Emmanuel Baguma of the Criminal Division of the High Court on Thursday ruled that the prosecution witness who presented the digital material had not laid the necessary foundation to have it admitted as evidence. However, the judge allowed the flash disk containing the recordings to be placed on court record for identification purposes.
