What is happening with Kiza Besigye in Uganda and what charges is he facing?

Kiza Besigye, a 68-year-old Ugandan opposition figure, has been detained and on hunger strike for a week, causing his health to deteriorate. After brief hospitalization, he was returned to prison. Despite his declining condition, he continues to be held in custody. Besigye faces serious charges in a military court, including illegal firearm possession, threatening national security, and treachery - the latter carrying a death sentence. He denies all accusations against him. The case has raised significant concerns about the treatment of political opposition figures in Uganda and the use of military courts against civilians.
