Uganda Human Rights Commission (UHRC) has commenced investigations into the killings in Kasese that claimed over 60 people.

UHRC issued a statement saying it will make public its findings as per a directive from the Speaker of Parliament Rebecca Kadaga.

The commission sent a team to Kasese on Nov 29 and others were dispatched to Jinja where Mumbere, the Rwenzururu king and other suspects are being held.

The acting Chairman of the Commission Katebalirwe Amooti Wa Irumba urged social media users to desist from circulating images that may inflame tensions.
