CAN I BE ARRESTED FOR THROWING RUBBISH ON THE ROAD ?.


By BarefootLawyers. 


Nakatenda was shocked when Afande Tom stopped her because she was seen throwing a soda bottle out of her car. Afande requested her to drive back and pick it up or he will arrest her.  Is this legal? Can she be arrested for this?

 

WHAT DOES THE LAW SAY?

 

All Ugandans have a right to a clean and healthy environment which creates a duty to protect, maintain and use the environment in a way that ensures that it is protected for the future generations. However, since we need guidance and supervision on this, the law (The National Environmental Act) gives authority to the National Environmental Management Authority (NEMA) to guide and monitor everyone on use and conservation of the environment.   

 

This law gives NEMA powers to come up with regulations and punishments for anyone who endangers the environment. If you are found throwing rubbish on the road or in trenches, you will be arrested by the police. This also applies to people who throw rubbish out of cars while on the road. 


Therefore, ifNakatenda refuses to drive back and pick up her soda bottle she may be arrested.

 

Also, did you know that you can report a person for throwing rubbish on the road if you have evidence such as a video or picture?

Again on this 4-December-2023, the same USA has slapped sanctions against Uganda Prisons Commander Johnson Byabashaija over alleged torture and human rights abuses in Prisons across Uganda. We ask, has USA and UK made December as an LCM to slap sanctions against high ranking government officials in Uganda even when the sanctions just remain on paper without deeper investigations to ascertain logical conclusions or remedy to that effect ?. #iip_updates  #Information_is_Power  #we_inform_the_uninformed
