{UAH} Pastor Arrested for Claiming to Heal COVID-19

William, 

While breaching the presidential directive is an offence, but considering that researchers the world allover are struggling to get the cure for COVID-19, I think it is wrong for government to dismiss the Pastor's claim without proof. 

They should ask him to present his cure for the world to see,we need the cure and if the man of God from western Uganda has found it, God be praised! 

Let him present his findings and if he fails then charge him for misinformation which can harm people. But he stands charged for breaching social-distancing directive.

The Police in the western Uganda district of Kikuube have arrested a 63-year-old Pastor for allegedly claiming to have found a cure for coronavirus.

Pastor Saveriyo Businge was arrested together with six other members of his household over what the police call spreading misleading information to the public that he has powers to heal COVID-19.

Businge was arrested by a team of police detectives who stormed Jerusalem Church in Karama-Kabwoya Sub County, Kikuube district where he had assembled a number of people, in disregard of a presidential directive that banned church gatherings, as a measure to control the spread of COVID-19.
