Kivumbi, a National Unity Platform deputy president and Butambala lawmaker, faces arrest for alleged ties to machete attacks during clashes at a polling station following his loss to an NRM candidate. Security forces fired on armed groups trying to storm the site, killing at least seven, while Kivumbi claimed in a video that operatives raided his home and shot nearly 10 supporters. President Museveni called the incidents 'terrorist' plots by NUP, marking the third such detention of a senior party figure since the January 15 polls that he won amid opposition fraud claims.
