Wife of jailed Ugandan opposition leader wants family supplied food for husband

The wife of jailed Ugandan opposition leader Dr. Kizza Besigye says her husband does not want to go on a hunger strike just to make a point. However, Winnie Byanyima, who is also executive director of the United Nations AIDS agency (UNAIDS), says her husband has been given impossible choices, including life in prison. Dr. Besigye and a co-defendant are on trial in a military court for the unlawful possession of ammunition and a firearm. Byanyima tells VOA's James Butty, prison authorities are denying Dr. Besigye his choice of family prepared food, contrary to prison practices
