15 days under incommunicado detention at Makindye military barracks, my assistant, #SelectorDavie was produced at Bombo military court & released on bail; hours after we applied for habeas corpus in the High Court. He tells horrifying stories about the experience at the facility
The High Court ruled this morning that my continued house arrest (11 days now) is illegal & unconstitutional. Several hours later, the military still surrounds my home, blocking access to all! Perhaps (as always) waiting for Gen. Museveni's orders on the next course of action.
I am receiving worrying allegations of internet shutdown & blocking of access to social media platforms ahead of tomorrow's general elections in #Uganda. Access to information& communication tools is critical for fair, transparent &peaceful elections @DefendDefenders@accessnow
