Music promoter Andrew Mukasa popularly known as Bajjo has been remanded to Luzira Prison on charges of inciting violence and offensive communication against President Yoweri Museveni.

Bajjo appeared before the Buganda Road Court Grade One Magistrate, Stella Amabiris, at about 5:30 pm who read out the charges to him.

However, Bajjo, 29, who appeared crestfallen, denied the charge of inciting violence but pleaded guilty on offensive communication.

At that point, his lawyer Erias Lukwago informed the magistrate that his client did not understand the second count due to what he called poor interpretation by the court clerk.

“Your Worship, I think my client has not understood the second charge because of poor interpretation by the court clerk and I beg the charge to be read out to him afresh because we have also not understood the interpretation of the second count,” Lukwago submitted.

After an exchange between Lukwago and the magistrate, the case was stood over for 10 minutes to get another interpreter in vain.

When the hearing resumed, the magistrate instead adjourned the case until June 25 when Bajjo will take plea on the second count.
