{The suspects who include Dan Oola Odiya, the Uganda People\u2019s Congress (UPC) national deputy mobiliser are detained Nalufenya Police Station in Jinja and Special Investigations Unit (SIU) in Kireka according to their lawyer Nicholas Opiyo.}<\/p>\n
Suspects re-arrested from Gulu High Court on Thursday are in Police detention, their lawyer has said.<\/p>\n
Mr Opiyo, in a statement said Mr Odiya had been transferred to Nalufenya on Thursday night while his two co-accused Mr Kenneth Otto and Mr Sam Ojok Obama, remain detained at SIU, Kireka.<\/p>\n
\u201cNo charges have been preferred yet and they have not been subjected to interrogations as yet. They have not been physically hurt either,\u201d Mr Opiyo said in a statement.<\/p>\n
When contacted, Mr Opiyo explained that Police was still within 48-hours to legally hold the suspects and that if they are detained beyond that, the lawyers would petition court.<\/p>\n
The trio was arrested after the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) on Thursday dropped charges including treason, concealment, murder by shooting and attempted murder against them.<\/p>\n
Before they could be released, however, flying squad police operatives picked them up in a vehicle, registration no., UAZ 992M and took them to an unknown destination.<\/p>\n
Aswa Region police spokesperson, Jimmy Patrick Okema confirmed the development and said Police had picked the trio \u201cto have more interviews with them.\u201d<\/p>\n
By press time, it was not clear whether fresh charges will be brought against them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
