Uganda accuses US of subversion after envoy tries to visit Wine's house

US ambassador blocked from seeing opposition leader, who is under house arrest since voting in disputed poll

Uganda has accused the US of trying to subvert last week's presidential elections after the US ambassador attempted to visit the main opposition candidate at his home, which has been surrounded by security forces since the vote.

The military surrounded the home of pop star-turned-legislator Bobi Wine, whose real name is Robert Kyagulanyi, shortly after he cast his ballot in Thursday's presidential elections.
