Uganda presidential challenger Dr. Besigye
[Africa: Uganda Elections 2016]
One person has been injured and rushed to hospital as police in Bukwo district fired teargas and live bullets to disperse Forum for Democratic Change (FDC) presidential candidate, Dr Kizza Besigye’s supporters.
Police commanded by Siipi region RPC Gerald Twishime, ordered Dr. Besigye and his supporters not to proceed to Tatriet camp in Bukwo district, Sebei sub-region but in vain. This was after a group led by the old people asked Dr. Besigye to visit the camp.
Dr. Besigye broke through a police human barricade and walked towards the camp.
