Forum for Democratic Change (FDC) presidential flag bearer Dr. Kiiza Besigye and Kyadondo East MP Ibrahim Ssemujju Nganda have now been transferred to Kiira Road police station.
These were arrested earlier in two different places.
According to the police deputy spokesperson Polly Namaye, the duo was placed under preventive arrest to avoid possible breach of peace.
Their arrest attracted the attention of UN Human rights officials who went to Naggalama police station in Mukono district where the duo had been detained. The officials were led by Javier San Franciso.
Besigye was arrested this morning as he left his home in Kasangati for FDC mobilization activities.
Besigye’s home has been under siege since last night as he and several party leaders planned to launch offices at Kireka and Mukono, before heading to Jinja and Iganga for other mobilization activities.

Earlier Besigye who was in the company of Tororo Municipality Member of Parliament, Geoffrey Ekanya said deployment at his home is an abuse of his rights.
