Uganda arrests
NZPA-Reuter Kampala A former Government Deputy Minister loyal to the ousted Ugandan President, Yusufu Lule, and two journalists have been arrested on unspecified charges, their lawyers have said. Robert Sebunnya, Deputy Information Minister under the former President, was reported late last month to have announced the formation of a new political party, the Uganda Democratic Union, with Professor Lule as head. Professor Lule became President in mid-April after Idi Amin was toppled, but he himself was replaced two months later by President Godfrey Binaisa.
