Kampala City is as still and static as a graveyard with the streets full of Army and police in patrol trucks and on foot.
Police and the military continue to deploy massively at downtown Kampala to control irate protesters who are demanding the release of the National Unity Platform-NUP party presidential aspirant Robert Kyagulanyi aka Bobi Wine.
Business is at a halt as all shops have been shut and security forces on the ground are ordering all persons there to come out of their hiding, hands up, and be on their way home.
However, live bullets are still being fired to disperse defiant people. one protestor was shot at and rushed to hospital in a red cross ambulance that was camped at the Kisekka market, another was reportedly fired a bullet in the mouth, dead.
Meanwhile, good samaritans continue to offer first aid to people collapsing to the ground as a result of the teargas.
Earlier , people in downtown Kampala along Kisekka Market and in Nyendo, Masaka, took to the streets to demonstrate against the arrest and demanded an immediate release of Kyagulanyi.
The protestors burnt tyres and put heavy stones in the middle of the road, and continued to throw heavy stones at the police copes who were trying to remove them.
In Masaka, supporters blocked roads with tyres which they set on fire.
Kyagulanyi was arrested in Luuka district while addressing a campaign trail, which according to the police, was against the Electoral Commission directive of having not more than 200 people. He was transferred to Nalufenya in Jinja
