The People’s Front for Freedom (PFF) has raised alarm after revealing that opposition veteran Dr. Kizza Besigye’s health is worsening, calling for urgent medical attention and immediate access to his doctors and family.
However, in a statement released on Tuesday, the party noted that it received credible reports that Dr. Kizza Besigye was rushed in the night from Luzira Prison to a medical facility at Bugolobi Village Mall under heavy security.
“It is a tragedy that a man who has dedicated his life to the health and freedom of others is being denied his own right to medical dignity. We hold the regime and the prison authorities fully accountable for his well-being,” the statement read.

The party has since demanded for Dr. Besigye’s personal doctors and family to be granted immediate and unrestricted access to him.
“We reiterate that Dr. Besigye is being held in total disregard of the law. He must be freed to receive the care he deserves,” the party said.
Besigye, who was allegedly abducted from Nairobi in 2024, is accused of plotting to overthrow the Ugandan government in collaboration with operatives reportedly based in Geneva, Athens, Nairobi, and Kampala.
By the time of this publication, security organs were yet to release a statement on Dr. Besigye’s health.
