In a statement shared on Monday, Bobi Wine said he had “just learnt of the violent abduction” of Lukwago from his home in Wakaliga, Kampala, earlier in the morning.

He stated that the lawyer was taken by armed men as he prepared to serve court summons linked to a legal matter involving Chief of Defence Forces Muhoozi Kainerugaba.

According to Bobi Wine, Lukwago is a lead counsel in ongoing high-profile legal cases involving opposition figure Dr. Kizza Besigye, including a treason-related matter and another case challenging alleged abduction and torture claims linked to previous incidents.

He further stated that military personnel stormed Lukwago’s residence and whisked him away using what is locally referred to as a “drone,” a term commonly used to describe security vans.

The opposition leader also referenced social media posts he attributed to Muhoozi, in which he claimed the CDF made remarks suggesting Lukwago had been taken to a “basement” and subjected to torture.
