Authorities say they are holding him to carry out medical tests following his claim to have been tortured while in detention.

Bobi Wine has been charged with treason after his supporters stoned  President Yoweri Museveni’s car.

The judge granted him bail and returned his passport to enable him to seek medical treatment  abroad.

Wine’s lawyer Robert Amsterdam say they’ll resist allowing Ugandan authorities, who he says tortured his client, to examine him.

Amsterdam says Wine, who can only walk with crutches, is in considerable pain and suffering from kidney failure.

He has not been granted access to Wine since his rearrest.
