dc.description.abstractThe presumption of innocence under the Constitution of the Republic of Uganda and the Criminal Justice System of Uganda is one of the key tenets of Natural Justice that was designed to whole-heartedly protect the rights of accused and persons suspected of committing offences until such a time as when the Criminal Justice will prove them guilty of the commission of such offences and/or exonerate them from the same. However, there have been several instances in which authorities in whose custody people accused of crime have been tortured and subjected to degrading and humiliating treatment during investigations. This dissertation will examine the inherent and constitutional rights of people in Police Custody in Uganda and provide solutions to the torture they undergo while in Police Custody.
