The Buganda Road Chief Magistrates Court has directed Tik- toker Ibrahim Musana also known as Pressure 24/7 who allegedly abused the Kabaka of Buganda, Ronald Mutebi and President Museveni to return to Luzira Prison since investigations in the hate speech case against him are still ongoing.
On Thursday, State Attorney Ivan Kyazze asked Court presided over by the Chief Magistrate Ronald Kayiizi to grant him a short adjournment in the matter on grounds that investigations are almost done.
Prosecution states that between August 2023 and February 2024 in areas of Kampala district, while using a computer via his tik-tok account, Pressure 24 Seven shared information which is likely to degrade or demean and promote hostility against four leaders including the Kabaka Ronald Muwenda Mutebi 2, President Museveni, Speaker of Parliament Annet Anita Among and State Minister for Information Communication Technology – ICT Joyce Nabbosa Ssebugwawo.
Consequently, Pressure 24/7 was remanded until April 29th 2024 with hopes that by that time the, Prosecution will have concluded investigations.
Pressure 24 Seven was arraigned before the Court for the first time on February 24th 2024.
His troubles started when Buganda Kingdom officials reported a case of ridiculing the Kabaka to police. He was then arrested and kept under police custody for a week prior to his production in court.
