On 17 July, Robert Lugya Kayingo – a Ugandan-South African lawyer and President of the opposition political party, Ugandan Federal Alliance – was arbitrarily arrested by Ugandan security agents at Entebbe Airport, after disembarking from his flight from South Africa. He was not seen or heard from for 27 days. On 12 August, he was released and summarily deported to South Africa. He is now at home with his family in Johannesburg.
