Mr Ssegirinya - who is in opposition - was charged in September in connection with the rebel activities in Masaka region.

His health deteriorated while in detention and leaders have been calling for him to be allowed to seek proper medical care.

Prison authorities took him to the national referral hospital where he was admitted.
