Hon Ssewanyana was arrested on fresh charges of treason-Enanga

The police have warned that they are closely monitoring plans by selected criminal elements who include; bodaboda and youth gangs instigated by politicians, to hold illegal protests and unlawful demonstrations, within Kampala, and Masaka, over the re-arrest of Hon. Allan Ssewanyana.

While addressing the weekly police press briefing at Naguru on Monday, Fred Enanga the Police Spokesperson revealed that the Makindye West MP was arrested on fresh charges of treason and incitement to violence, within the provisions of the law. 

He added that the task team found it important that they turn over every allegation against him and have recorded his statement accordingly.

“Therefore, all criminal elements planning to incite violence, over a lawful procedure, are simply undermining the prevailing rule of law in the country.  This is wholly unacceptable, because organizers of such illegal protests, always have no potential of guarding against unlawful behaviors of looting, malicious damage and disruption of people’s lives and businesses” Enanga warned.

The police spokesperson argued that although they respect the rights of individuals and groups, where they abuse such rights and privileges, the law will be enforced.

“As we continue to monitor the situation, we are prepared to act immediately to enforce rule of law, to safeguard the lives and property of all citizens and visitors in the country.  Our task teams are alert and on standby for any action of violence” Enanga said.
