Court rejects businessman’s bid to reclaim impounded machines
The High Court in Kampala has rejected businessman Moses Kalungi’s bid to release his company’s machines, which the Uganda Revenue Authority (URA) impounded for unpaid taxes. High Court Judge Douglas Singiza dismissed the application, stating that the case is a tax dispute and should be heard by the Tax Appeals Tribunal (TAT), not the High Court.

However, Justice Singiza referred the case to the TAT, citing the shared jurisdiction of the High Court and the TAT in tax disputes. The judge emphasized that only a constitutional amendment can limit the High […] The post Court rejects businessman’s bid to reclaim impounded machines first appeared on 93.3 KFM.
