activists.<\/p>\n<p>The most recent cases of Mr. Kakwenza Rwakirabashaija, a Novelist, and Mr. Samuel Masereka, the Coordinator of the National Unity Platform in Kasese are some of the publicly discussed indicators of a very worrying trend. The evidence in the public domain reveals that the two were arbitrarily arrested, tortured, and denied access to their families and lawyers at various points while in detention. These are a violation of fundamental human rights enshrined in the 1995 Constitution of Uganda and the International Human Rights Statutes.<\/p>\n<\/div>\r\n                                <div class=\"pub-link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lwegatech.net\/ngoforum\/downloads\/unngof-statement-on-torture-of-activists\/\">More about this publication <\/a><\/div> \r\n                            <\/td>\r\n                            <td width=\"16%\" class=\"align-self-center py-3\">\r\n                                <div class=\"pub-download\"> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lwegatech.net\/ngoforum\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/UNNGOF-STATEMENT-ON-TORTURE-OF-ACTIVISTS.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" onclick=\"updateDownloadCount(456)\"> Download<\/button><\/a><\/div>\r\n                                    <script>\r\n                                        function updateDownloadCount(post_id) {\r\n                                            jQuery.ajax({\r\n                                                type: 'POST',\r\n                                                url: 'https:\/\/www.lwegatech.net\/ngoforum\/wp-admin\/admin-ajax.php',\r\n                                                data: {\r\n                                                    action: 'update_download_count',\r\n                                                    post_id: post_id\r\n                                                },\r\n                                                success: function(response) {\r\n                                                    \/\/ Optionally handle success response\r\n                                                    console.log('Download count updated successfully.');\r\n                                                }\r\n                                            });\r\n                                        }\r\n                                    <\/script>\r\n                            <\/td><!-- download link  !-->\r\n                        <\/tr>\r\n                                            <tr>\r\n                            <td width=\"25%\">\r\n                                <div class=\"pdf-thumbnail\">\r\n                \t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"707\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lwegatech.net\/ngoforum\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/CSO-New-Year-Message-2022.jpg\" class=\"attachment-post-thumbnail size-post-thumbnail wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lwegatech.net\/ngoforum\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/CSO-New-Year-Message-2022.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.lwegatech.net\/ngoforum\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/CSO-New-Year-Message-2022-212x300.jpg 212w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/>                \t\t\t\t<\/div><!-- thumbnail !-->\r\n                            <\/td>\r\n                            <td width=\"58%\" class=\"align-self-center\">\r\n                                <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lwegatech.net\/ngoforum\/downloads\/2022-cso-new-year-message\/\"><h4 class=\"pub-title\">2022 CSO New Year Message<\/h4><\/a>\r\n                                <div class=\"py-1\"><small>Downloads: 1 | Size: 410 KB<\/small><\/div>\r\n                                <h5 class=\"pub-summ\">Overview<\/h5>\r\n                                <div class=\"pub-desc\"> <p>As the collective leadership of Civil Society Organizations (CSOs) in Uganda, we congratulate all Ugandans for their\u00a0 resilience and making it through a challenging 2021.
