Friends and comrades, we implore you to stand with @kizzabesigye1@EriasLukwago , Lutale and all political prisoners during this very difficult time in their lives..
Is it a coincidence or a pattern that opposition leaders in East Africa are in jail, with Tundu Lissu (TZ), Kizza Besigye (UG), Brian Mundubile (ZA), Riek Machar (SS) on treason and and Vitoire Ingabire (RW), on terrorism charges?
The People's Front for Freedom party condemns the judiciary and prison authorities for mistreating their leaders @EriasLukwago and Dr @kizzabesigye1 while in detention.
@kizzabesigye1@Winnie_Byanyima It seems they want to release him when he's just about to die, so that they deny responsibility, grant him a state burial and move on to their next victim! I have never seen evil people as those keeping Besigye in jail
When @kizzabesigye1 collapsed in court and was admitted to Mulago ICU, they claimed he was pretending and forcefully took him to Luzira staff clinic. Where judge Baguma, who's denied him bail 4 times, tried to force him to attend court via zoom.
@kizzabesigye1 But they've been lying to the country that he's fearing trial. His wife @Winnie_Byanyima has been asking them to release him on bail,so she can have him treated in specialized hospitals in Geneva, but they have refused.
