notes: On March 28th, students rioted at Kuambogo University in Kampala, following an attempt by University administration to prevent students from being able to complete an academic year if they did not pay fees within 12 weeks of term beginning. Windows of university buildings were smashed (as were the windows of several vehicles); police fired live ammunition and tear gas at the students to disperse them. One student lost a hand when he attempted to throw a tear gas canister back at police. [size=no report]
