Ugandan opposition leader Kizza Besigye was re-arrested Tuesday just hours after he left his home.
The move came despite assurances by authorities that he was free to attend prayers at his party headquarters Tuesday.
Besigye, who often draws large crowds wherever he travels, had been under house arrest since the presidential poll on February 18.
His arrest came as supporters joined his procession from the outskirts of Kampala and followed him as he made his way into the city.
Besigye was taken to Nagalama police station outside Kampala.  A police spokesperson said he has been charged with participating in an unlawful procession.
Besigye was arrested several times in the run-up to the February 18 polls.  He was placed under house arrest for a month and half after the vote.
