The rights group wants six outlets closed on General Muhoozi Kainerugaba's orders reopened, framing the closures as part of a wider pattern of intimidation against civil society.

Desk note: Monexus has framed this as a press-freedom story anchored to Amnesty International's specific demands, with the Kainerugaba factor named explicitly. Where the rights group's account and the Ugandan state's account diverge, both have been set out and the question of which framing holds has been left to the reader.
