Presidential candidate Gen Henry Tumukunde is currently being detained at Njeru police.
According to Police, the former spy chief was effected over allegations that his team failed to observe standard operating procedure (SOPs) peddled at curbing the spread of covid-19.
Tumukunde was earlier stopped on the way for a consultative meeting of 10 people in Buikwe district.
His team claims all SOP’s were being observed and they were heading to consult various Ugandans on what concerns them most in a bid to have their views included in the manifesto a head of the 2021 general elections.
Last week, the minister of security launched a political pressure group dubbed ‘Renewed Uganda’ seeking to unseat his former boss and bush war comrade Gen Yoweri Kaguta Museveni.
