The drugs n issue were said to have been a donation from the Peoples Republic of China to the Republic of Uganda and were meant to be distributed through referral hospitals i n the regions as well as at Mulago national referral hospital. Those drugs which included Duo-cotecxin and Arco, the prosecution alleges, were found to have been grossly mismanaged in the way they were requisitioned and distributed thanks to Al\rquote s negligenc e which even let his staff have illegal access to the drugs at source. Furthermore, an outfit related to as Pilgrim Project was let to receive the bulk of the drugs to the tune of 552,000 doses while referral hospitals were given little and Mulago Hospita l was given only 5,000 doses out of the requisitioned 40,000 doses. Prosecution allegation against A2 and A3 is that they took large amounts of Duocotecxin and Arca so that A2 requisitioned for 14600 doses while A3 requisitioned for 37,200 doses. }{ \rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 \insrsid12124385 \par }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 \insrsid8456008\charrsid12124385 \line PW3 in his evidence stated t}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 \insrsid12124385 hat in total doses of Duo-cotecxi}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 \insrsid8456008\charrsid12124385 n and Arca delivered before and after Al became Programme Manager were 452,160.

The evidence above was never contradicted. In the premises it is hard to believe prosecution allegation that 552,000 doses had been received by Pilgrim Project when that number Is far in excess of the total number of doses received by the Malaria Control Programme itself by way of donation from the Peoples Republic of China. There was no evidence to support the allegation that only 5,000 doses had been given to Mulago Hospital. Evidence available which PW3 gave was that Mulago was infact given more doses a s already indicated. It is also worthwhile to draw from the evidence of PW6 and Al himself that no policy existed regarding distribution of drugs dnrialed by the Peoples Republic of China before or after the assunption of office by Al as Programme Manager

Malaria Control Program. Evidence was tendered however of allocation of the drugs in issue to Mulago Hospital and regional referral hospitals. Exhibits P2 and P3 are relevant In this respect. Prosecution did not show that the allocations had any irregular ity attending them save that of Mulago Hospital which has already been considered above and found no}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 \insrsid12124385 t to agree with the allegation. \par }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 \insrsid8456008\charrsid12124385 \line Regarding distribution of drugs to staff, once again the evidence of PW6 and PW1 agreed that requisition would be made, perf ectly normal by their word, to the store at the Malaria Research Centre for supply of drugs to be distributed among the staff of Ministry of Health who were suffering from malaria or whose dependants were 5aid to be suffering from malaria, for their treat m ent. When PW6 was Programme Manager drugs were kept in his office but PW4 would be called upon to dispense the drugs to staff. There was an inter regnum between PW6 arid Als tenure as Programme Manager. Then A2 acted and matters remained more or less the w ay they had been when PW6 was in charge. Later however, when Al became Programme Manager, drugs were taken from his office to the general office where PW4 sat and dispensed drugs as she saw fit. What qualification hc had in this regard resulted from instr uctions she received from A2 both through training and what she had written down for her by A2 concerning proper doses. It is not disputed she did dispense drugs. Also not disputed is the fact that she recorded particulars of drugs she dispensed and indivi duals to whom those drugs were distributed in a book which was exhibit P10. it will not pass without note that the method of distribution had short comings. First, there was an instance for example where as many as 50 doses would be dispensed to an indivi d ual. This of course attracts curiosity given that one person is entitled to one dose. What one person would do with so many doses would remain subject of conjecture. Also telling was admission by PW4 herself that often times she would be absent owing to p oor health arid at such times she would not be privy to how drugs would be distributed. Perhaps It was owing to this in the background that Al sought to get even with another spot of bother.
