Joseph Kizza Kabuleta, a former presidential candidate was taken to an unknown destination by plain clothed men who grabbed him at his party offices in Bugolobi at about 1:00pm on Monday.

A video footage captured at the offices shows 6 unknown men in plain clothing enter the NEED (National Economic Empowerment Dialogue) offices, four approached Kabuleta where he sat with two others exchanging pleasantries.

“They told us he was being taken to the Criminal Investigations Directorate CID. We followed him at CID but shockingly we were informed that they don’t have him. So currently we don’t know where exactly he is being held.” said Moses Matovu the party spokesperson.

This arrest happens after Kabuleta a few days ago addressed a press conference discussing recent attacks on security installations and theft of guns in the country.

“We have security issues here, a lot of uncertainties going on here, the president should come out and address the nation on these insecurity problems that are popping up in the country instead of traveling to Vietnam, USA, claiming that he is attracting investors. Who can invest here with this uncertainty around?“ Mr. Kabuleta asked before his arrest.
