Useless Ugandan Post

"Uganda said to consider pardon for Joseph Kony associate" Associated Press, May 16, 2012

KAMPALA, Uganda - Uganda may give amnesty to a top Joseph Kony associate arrested last week, a government official said, in an arrangement that would disappoint activists who want Caesar Acellam tried for atrocities committed by the Lord’s Resistance Army.

Defense Minister Crispus Kiyonga said Monday the circumstances of Acellam’s arrest - whether he was captured or gave himself up - would be crucial to a possible decision to pardon the commander....

Acellam is being held in Nzara, a village in South Sudan that is the administrative hub of Uganda’s anti-Kony operation. The Ugandans are being advised by US Special Forces sent last year by President Obama to help regional governments eliminate the group’s leaders....

Uganda has an amnesty law under which some former combatants in the group have walked free after cooperating with authorities. The law, which can seem to favor former rebels at the expense of their many victims, has created tension between justice and peace in a country eager to move on from decades of a brutal insurgency that traumatized millions.
