Twenty eight
appeared before grade one magistrate His worship Raphael Vueni while three appeared
before the chief magistrate His worship Komakech Keneth.
The juveniles looked
malnourished and bony which was attributed to poor feeding. The suspects are
between 14-17 years.
This was observed
yesterday in court as they appeared to answer different charges that were preferred
against them.
Their state
prompted His worship Raphael Vueni to ask the officer who brought them in court
whether they feed the Juveniles in Kabale remand home.
The officer told
magistrate that the number of children at Kabale remand home is overwhelming and
beyond their capacity.
He revealed that three
minors share a meal that is supposed to be for one child in a day because of
the big number at the facility.
He asked the magistrate
to release some so that they can remain with manageable number.
