Uganda Soldiers At Bobi Wine’s Home Despite Court Order

Ugandan military and police are still deployed outside the house of opposition politician Bobi Wine despite a court ordering them to leave.

The army had initially said it would respect the ruling.

Bobi Wine has not left his house in the outskirts of the capital, Kampala, since voting in the presidential election 12 days ago.

He tweeted that the military was still blocking access to all his visitors.

Journalists working for the Daily Monitor newspaper say military and police deployments had been reinforced on the road leading to Bobi Wine's residence and checkpoints increased.

Two cars carrying journalists heading home on Monday evening were stopped and ordered to go back.
