KAMPALA-Forum for Democratic Change (FDC) flag bearer in the Dr Warren Kizza Besigye has been arrested and taken to Naggalama Police Station, in Mukono district, about 15 miles from Kampala.
The development comes just a day before the swearing in ceremony of President Musevenitomorrow.
Earlier Dr Besigye had beaten police deployed at his Kasangati home and stormed the city, prompting police and the army to swing in action and arrest him before driving him through the eastern route of Bukoto in a five-vehicle convoy including a teargas monster truck.
Meanwhile, security forces are engaged in running battles in the city centre to disperse crowds that had swelled to show support to Dr Kizza Besigye.
Yesterday, Dr Besigye vowed to hold an alternative swearing in ceremony at the Constitutional Square, presided over the City Lord Mayor-elect Erias Lukwago.
