Former Kampala Lord Mayor Erias Lukwago was reportedly abducted by security forces from his home on Monday. He was subsequently released and left at Kira Division police headquarters. A team of Lukwago’s lawyers immediately went to the police station following news of his release. Details surrounding the abduction and the reasons behind it remain unclear. The incident has raised concerns among human rights activists and political observers in Uganda. Further information is expected as Lukwago’s legal team assesses the situation and seeks clarification from authorities. This event follows a pattern of similar actions targeting opposition figures in the country.
