According to Kyagulanyi, the 15 landed at Entebbe at 10am but upto they are still be grilled by officers who asked them who had sponsored their tickets back home.

“I have been informed that 15 of the Ugandans who have been repatriated from Dubai today are being held by security operatives at Entebbe Airport. They landed at 10:30am and up to now (5:00pm) they are still being interrogated! Before their phones were taken away, they informed our teams what was happening to them as soon as they landed. ” Kyagulanyi has said

“Once they realised that the 15 are part of those we are trying to bring back, operatives told them they were the ones they were looking for. They asked who bought the airtickets for their return, they were asked to open their phones, etc. On finding #PeoplePower pictures and other things, they were immediately apprehended! Up to now, no one is able to communicate with them!” He adds

Kyagulanyi says the whole intention is of course to frustrate their effort to repatriate more Ugandans who are suffering abroad.
