Lyomoki, who was at the television station for a morning talk show, was rushed to police’s Special Investigations Unit (SIU) in Kireka, a Kampala suburb for snubbing Police summons.
The deputy director of the Criminal Investigations and Intelligence Directorate, Geoffrey Musana, had on January 7, invited for the second time the MP to appear at Kireka.
The legislator was supposed to explain why he alleged that government had a hand in the death of Butaleja Woman MP Cerinah Nebanda.
Lyomoki on Monday told press at Parliament that he had received a telephone call from Speaker Rebecca Kadaga’s office about the fresh summons but said he would not voluntarily appear at SIU for questioning, insisting he had no case to answer.
He also blasted Police for concocting a “fake report” that Nebanda died of drug abuse “yet we know that he succumbed to poison.”
Deputy Police publicist Vincent Ssekate was not readily available for comment.
Lyomoki now joins fellow MPs Chris Baryomunsi and Mohammed Nsereko who were arrested over statements that disputed the Police investigation report on Nebanda’s widely publicized death.
Addressing press in December 2012, President Museveni described MPs who accuse his government of killing Nebanda as “idiots and fools” who would be “fought and defeated.”(Chimp Reports)
