Bobi Wine alleged that shortly after the 15 January election, security forces climbed the fence of his home, assaulted his wife Barbie Kyagulanyi and pressed her to reveal where he was. He said the raid followed an order from the Chief of Defence Forces, Gen Muhoozi Kainerugaba, and that soldiers photographed his wife, images he says the military chief later shared online.
