Uganda fire, riot
This item appears on page 17 of the July 2010 issue.
In Uganda, there has been a political struggle between the civil government and members of the Buganda traditional kingdom. In mid-March, a suspicious fire gutted the 128-year-old royal mausoleum of the kings of Buganda, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in Kampala. Days later, when the president visited the site, protesters rioted and at least two people were killed. Reconstruction of the Kasubi tombs is planned.
