Uganda: Presiding Judge Sets Date for Closing Statements in Ongwen Trial

The Presiding Judge in the trial of Dominic Ongwen has set March 10 of next year as the day when lawyers will start making their closing statements.

Presiding Judge Bertram Schmitt said in an order he issued Wednesday last week that he set the date because it is "probable" all the evidence in the trial will have been submitted by December.
