Gunmen have attacked and wounded Uganda’s Transport Minister and former army commander, Gen Katumba Wamala, killing his daughter and driver.
Witnesses say men on motorbikes fired several shots at their vehicle near their home in the capital, Kampala.
The army says phone calls potentially linked to planning the assassination attempt are being investigated.
Soldiers are guarding the hospital where Gen Wamala is being treated for non life-threatening injuries.
He is regarded as one of Uganda’s most respected politicians and military men.
