The United Nations Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights has urged the Ugandan government to launch an independent investigation into the recent arrest of a female member of the opposition Forum for Democratic Change party. The call was made by the UN body's Country Representative Uchenna Emelonye at a news conference in Kampala.  Emelonye's concerns were in reference to the incident in Kanyaryeru in Kiruhura district where the police roughed up a female FDC member while arresting her.
