A Rwandan refugee, Pascal Manirakiza who went missing in Uganda last week has been found tortured and unconscious, a Ugandan official has said.
Douglas Asiimwe, the senior protection officer in the Ugandan prime minister's office said, "He was full of blood... He has torture marks in the back".
According to BBC news, Manirakiza's abductors"dumped" him at a cemetery near the capital, Kampala. Manirakiza was one of four Rwandans who told the BBC last month that they were seeking asylum in Uganda.
They accused the Rwandan army of forcibly recruiting them to fight in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo.
The army dismissed their claim, saying they must have made up their stories to get asylum.
Rwanda has denied any involvement in the abductions
Manirakiza is being guarded at a hospital where he is receiving treatment, he said.
It was hoped that he would regain consciousness in a few days and that he would be able to shed light on who had abducted him, Mr Asiimwe said.
