Ugandan Prosecutors Drop Charges Against US Evangelist
------------------------------------------------------

http://enews.voanews.com/t?ctl=11836D9:3919ACA

Uganda has dropped criminal charges against a U.S. evangelist and has
instead ordered his deportation.

Peter Waldron was arrested in February after police found assault
weapons and ammunition in his home. He was charged with weapons
possession under the country's terrorism law. Waldron has denied being
a terrorist.

Prosecutors have not disclosed the reason for dropping the case.
