notes: On 2 April 2020, UPDF and police beat 32 women and 6 men at Lorokwo West village near the Elegu border post (Amuru district), and forced some of the victims to remove their clothes and roll in mud. The attacks were ostensibly part of coronavirus enforcement (specifically to disperse overcrowded buildings and what police claimed were brothels). Six soldiers were subsequently sentenced to six months jail time, and 10 police officers are under investigation.
