Ugandans seek 'massacre revenge'

[muriel_volestrangler]

Protesters in Uganda have attacked the homes of Acholi people, the ethnic group they blame for a massacre. At least one man - believed to be an Acholi - has been stoned to death by the mob in the town of Lira. Four other people have died after security forces opened fire on the crowds of protesters.

The BBC's Andrew Harding, on the march, says a section of the crowd broke away and formed what could only be described as a lynch mob. They began burning homes and threatening the lives of Acholis.

Our correspondent reports that the group he is with had to intervene on two occasions to prevent women from being murdered by a gang of men armed with clubs. Meanwhile, Uganda's army says that since the massacre it has killed 21 of those responsible.
