Writing on his Facebook page today, Muhinda stated: "Never allow your mind to be imprisoned. You can hit my body, injure it and even lock it down but a strong mind is the greatest defence against all forms of persecution."
Muhinda was arrested on October 19 after police fired tear gas and live bullets to disperse a crowd that had gathered at Rukungiri stadium to welcome Besigye. One person, Edison Nasasira, was killed in the resulting fracas.
Muhinda said: "I am absolutely convinced, as day follows night, that Uganda shall return to Ugandans. That change is inevitable."
