Naibu kamishina wa polisi Andrew Kaweesa ameomba radhi na kuahidi kufanya uchunguzi kutokana na tukio hilo. Tangu uchaguzi mkuu mwaka 2011 ambapo rais Yoweri Museveni alishinda Uganda imeshuhudia maandamano ya upinzani ambapo wafuasi wengi wameishia celi za polisi.
Tukio la wiki jana lilipelekea kuwepo ghadhabu ya umma ambapo pia lalama zilitanda kupinga kukamatwa kwa Bi Turinawe ambaye ni kiongozi wa tawi la wanawale katika chama cha FDC kinachoongozwa na Kizza Besigye.
Mwandishi wa BBC Siraj Kalyango amesema wanawake hao waliandamana hadi kituo cha polisi wakiwa vifua wazi na kupeperusha mabango yaliokuwa na maandishi,''utahisi vipi ikiwa sehemu zako nyeti zitafinywa''.Wanawake sita walikamatwa baada ya kukataa kufunika vifua vyao, lakini wakaachiwa huru bila masharti yeyote.
Several women were on Monday morning arrested after stripping down to their bras at Kampala Central Police Station (CPS) as they protested the brutal manner in which the opposition Forum for Democratic Change Women’s League leader Ingrid Turinawe was arrested last Friday.
Ms Turinawe was assaulted on Friday as the police blocked a rally called by the opposition in Nansana, outside Kampala.
The women first held a press conference at Open House at Buganda Road in Kampala before marching to CPS while holding placards. When they reached CPS, they stripped down to their bras, prompting the police to order them to leave the station. They were arrested after they refused to heed to this call.
The Daily Monitor is yet to ascertain how many women were arrested
