Raymond Otim (born 21 October 1986) in Kampala) is a Ugandan cricketer who played in the 2005 ICC Trophy in Ireland and the 2006 U-19 Cricket World Cup in Sri Lanka. He has also played in List A cricket for Uganda.[1]
Otim played for Uganda in the 2014 Cricket World Cup Qualifier tournament in New Zealand. However, Otim and team-mate Faruk Ochimi did not return to Uganda with their team when the tournament ended, and remained in New Zealand where they sought asylum.[2][3] Both players planned to travel to Australia to play with other Ugandan cricketers in the country.[4][5] However, before reaching Australia, both cricketers turned themselves in to the New Zealand authorities.[6]
