A habeas corpus is an application filed seeking the production in court of an arrested person so the suspect can answer to charges if any. Justice Musa Sekaana directed security agencies to produce Mutwe in court on September 4 and justify why he was being detained.
He appeared before court on Tuesday on charges related to treason and chaos that happened in Arua Municipality by-election.
Mutwe has been remanded to Gulu Central prison till October 1st 2018 when he will appear before court to answer to the afore mentioned charges.
