Kasim Ssebudde, a National Unity Platform (NUP) supporter popularly known as Kinta Kunte, was on Thursday evening dumped near his home in Mukono Municipality by unknown persons, weeks after his alleged abduction alongside Robert Kyagulanyi’s chief bodyguard, Eddie Mutwe.

Ssebudde emerged visibly frail and with fresh scars across his body, which he said were the result of torture during his illegal detention.

He told journalists that he had initially been held together with Eddie Mutwe and another NUP member, Kyagulanyi Najabi, before the three were separated and taken to different undisclosed locations.

“We were abducted on the same day. I was held with Eddie Mutwe and Najabi, but they later took each of us to different places. I was beaten, questioned—tortured without any charge,” he said.
