In a letter written by the Executive Director dated April, 20, 2021, undertook the management of the sanctuary,\u201d Mr Jamson Karemani, the presiding assistant registrar, ruled.<\/p>\n<p>He added: \u201cThe status quo is that despite the respondent (Zziwa Rhino and Capt Roy), having earlier threatened to evict the applicant (Rhino Fund Uganda), the status has since changed and the current actual status is that UWA is in control of the sanctuary and not the applicant. My finding is that there is no imminent threat posed by the respondents to warrant an interim order of injunction before the main application is heard.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Rhino Fund Uganda had argued that they would suffer irreparable damages if court does not issue an injunction, pending the hearing of the main case. They had also argued that there was need to preserve the status quo of the place since there were rhinos, a school and offices at the location.<\/p>\n<p><b>editorial@ug.nationmedia.com<\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Uganda.
