National Unity Platform (NUP) parliamentary candidate and flag bearer for Kawempe South, Muhammed Ssegirinya is set to be produced in court today in Jinja from Bugembe prison after his lawyers were granted a production warrant by court.
Ssegirinya was arrested last week on Thursday by men in plain clothes outside Nalufenya police station a day after the arrest of the National Unity Platform Presidential Candidate Kyagulanyi Ssentamu Robert.
He was arrested at Nalufenya police station in Jinja on Thursday morning while he was using his social media to air the events live.
Plain clothed security operatives arrived in a van, bundled Mr Ssegirinya and sped him off in a waiting tinted car.
According to Benjamin Katana, one of his lawyers said that Ssegirinya had been arrested for recording a video showing that NUP presidential candidate Robert Kyagulanyi aka Bobi Wine had been brutalised and was in bad condition following his arrest in Luuka District.
