George Serunjogi testifying before the Uganda Parliament, 2002
“His appearance foreshadowed the gothic turn the story would take next. A few months after his wife left him, he explained, a man had come to his house and splashed acid on his face, leaving him with grotesque burns. He couldn’t identify his attacker – but he pointedly mentioned that neither his wife, nor the Big Man, whom he refused to refer to by name, had bothered to visit him in the hospital.” [read newsletter]
