THE Attorney General on Friday asked the High Court to dismiss a case in which two women said they were tortured by the Police and the LCI chairman of Kireka on allegations that they were lesbians.
Margaret Nabakooza, the State Attorney, said the complainants had failed to prove their case because the Police did not arrest them.
She said John Lubega, LCI chairman, arrested one of the complainants, Yvonne Oyoo, from a bar.
Oyoo, a Kenyan student at Makerere University and Victor Juliet Mukasa, a Ugandan human rights activist, alleged that Lubega and the Police tortured and molested them.
They argued that the Police treated them in a degrading manner after arresting them on allegations that they were lesbians.
Earlier, Lubega had told court that he found the complainants kissing each other in a bar and arrested them.
