The Law Development council LDC has ordered that opposition Democratic party youth member and political pressure group people power activist Moses Bigirwa be released unconditionally.
Grade one magistrate Roselyn Nsenge made the order on grounds that the law of Publication of false news is no longer in existence since the supreme court nullified it.
However, state led by Roselyn Kipora has asked the matter to be adjourned to seek the Director of public prosecutions opinion on the matter.
But Bigirwa's lawyers led by Samuel Muyizi Asuman Basalirwa and Paul Kakande have raised an objection saying the case should either be closed or have the matter referred to the constitutional court for interpretation.
