On September 17, 2019, a disturbing video surfaced on social media, showing four Ugandan police officers filming a couple in a compromising position.
The officers, who have since been arrested, were accused of discreditable conduct and could face severe penalties, including having half of their monthly salary withheld for one to three months.
According to Police Spokesperson Fred Enanga, the officers should have arrested the couple instead of filming them and making fun of the entire scenario.
"They have been charged with discreditable conduct. They should have arrested those people and charged them for being a public nuisance, instead they went ahead to record them half-naked and shared the video on social media," Enanga said.
