The Daily Monitor reported that security forces used tear gas and gunfire in Kamuli Municipality to disperse NUP activists who burned tyres on roads to demand the release of Robert Kyagulanyi, arrested earlier in Luuka. Three pupils of Kamuli Township school fainted and were taken to Kamuli General Hospital, according to the head teacher. A health worker said police raided the hospital where people had fled, roughing up patients and staff and humiliating the Medical Superintendent.
