Veteran Ugandan opposition politician collapses in court and in ICU, his wife says

Ugandan opposition leader Kizza Besigye has been admitted to an intensive care unit (ICU) in the capital, Kampala, after collapsing unconscious in court during his treason trial, his wife has said.

His lead lawyer was arrested last month and charged with allegedly failing to report acts of treason.

His wife demanded that Besigye be allowed to receive treatment from his personal physician at a private clinic rather than at a government health facility.
