Charles Twine, the former spokesperson of the Criminal Investigations Directorate (CID), along with Noah Mutwe, a known bodyguard of opposition leader Robert Kyagulanyi (also known as Bobi Wine), has been charged with multiple offenses, including incitement to violence, dissemination of hate speech, spreading malicious information, and conspiracy to commit a felony.

The duo appeared on Thursday before Buganda Road Chief Magistrate Ronald Kayizzi, following Twine’s detention of about a week.

According to the prosecution, Twine used electronic messages to incite Mutwe to violently target President Yoweri Museveni and General Muhoozi Kainerugaba, citing political motivations. The alleged messages reportedly encouraged attacks using pavers.

Further charges under the Computer Misuse Act accuse Twine of broadcasting inflammatory statements aimed at high-ranking government officials. Among them: calling Speaker of Parliament Anita Among “a rotten human being” and accusing her of orchestrating violence in Bukedea District. He is also said to have labeled Deputy Speaker Thomas Tayebwa “a money launderer, masquerader, and fraudster.”

Twine’s reported attacks extended to military leadership as well. He allegedly referred to General Muhoozi Kainerugaba as “a fat pig and a crook” and accused General James Birungi of being “a crook and a killer.”

Prosecutors also claim Twine made ethnic slurs, stating, “the Bahima are killers,” remarks deemed to incite tribal hostility.

Both Twine and Mutwe pleaded not guilty to all charges. The court remanded them to Luzira Prison, with a return date set for June 5 as investigations continue.
