There are two stand-by ambulances from IHK and Parliament that are expected to transport the suspects- who were tortured in detention- to receive specialised treatment.

Mr Wadri is, however, not allowed to go to Arua Municipality in the next three months, unless cleared by court, according to Justice Mubiru.

Outside court, dozens of people are celebrating as the suspects go through the bail procedures before leaving court.

The suspects are supposed to appear before the Gulu Chief Magistrates Court on August 30 and any other time as court desires.
