Abstract:
On October 20, 2022, the Ugandan Standards, Utilities, and Wildlife Court meted out a sentence of life in prison to Pascal Ochiba, who was convicted of illegal possession of wildlife products, including two pieces of elephant ivory weighing a total of 9.55 kilograms. The sentence was Uganda’s strongest punishment ever for wildlife violations.[1]
