Uganda: arrest of Besigye
Written bySokari Ekine
Black Star Journal has a report on the arrest of Ugandan opposition leader, Kizza Besigye by President Yoweri Museveni. “After 19 years of banning all political parties, Museveni's regime finally legalized multipartism. He even invited main opposition leader Kizza Besigye to return to the country. In addition to being the main threat to his power, Besigye was once Museveni's personal doctor. When Museveni invited Besigye to return to the country, he promised that doctor wouldn't be arrested. So Besigye came home on Nov. 1. And less than two weeks later, he was… you guessed it… arrested on dubious charges.

Please tell us where you got the information that Museveni promised not to arrest the doctor. This is the kind of misinformation that goes unchecked!
If Mr Kruger had bothered to check the link provided before claiming “misinformation”, he would’ve found the answer to his question.
