Some of the Rwenzururu Kingdom royal guards at one on the shrines at the kingdom palace in Kasese District. Kasese — Following the expiry of the 30 days ultimatum given to remnants of Rwenzururu loyalists, more 16 days have been added to allow them come out of their hideouts or face assault by security forces. But four months down the road, only 17 of them have surrendered to security in Busongora North, the stronghold of Rwenzururu Kingdom while more than 200 reported from other parts of the district, especially Bukonzo West. Mr Mwesiye criticised the loyalists from Busongora North over refusing to surrender to security forces as compared to their colleagues in other constituencies. Mr Mwesigye reasoned that not all royal guards participated in the killings.
