Members of opposition Forum for Democratic Change have spent the whole of today in shock after the state preferred murder charges against their supporters arrested yesterday. The spokesperson of police, Judith Nabakooba says that FDC supporters are in detention over the killing of a policeman John Bosco Ariongo.
Some of the FDC supporters facing murder charges include Henry Kavuma, and George Kaija. Other FDC supporters face charges of holding unlawful assembly and disobeying lawful orders while they were with Col. Kiiza Besigye.
Late Ariongo was hit by a stone on his forehead by a suspected rioter and died as he was being taken to the hospital. The suspects in their statements have denied having had a hand in the death of Ariongo. Nabakooba says that more FDC supporters are to be arrested after investigations are complete.
