A proposed anti-gay bill in Kenya would see gays and lesbians jailed for 50 years for non-consensual sex.

The draft law is recommending a ban on homosexuality, same-sex unions and any LGBTQ activities and campaigns.

A 20 year old man becomes the 1st person to be prosecuted under the Uganda anti homosexuality act 2023. Aggravated homosexuality is punishable by Death #RepealAHA23

[#RepealAHA23 @CFE_Uganda]

A man charged with "aggravated homosexuality" (which carries a death sentence) appeared in Soroti court today.
Here's the background to this case and why it is so unprecedented. 👇🏿
The CFE continues to call for the repeal of the entire anti gay law.

This circular released by the Director of Public Prosecutions is an indication that all arrests happening by Uganda Police are malicious & aimed at propagating homophobia in the public domain.

No one should be imprisoned -- let alone given the death penalty -- for being who they are, but that is what the Ugandan government is now doing, with the first young man arrested on charges of same-sex conduct that could lead to his execution.

[ACHERI @achericenter]

This is heartwarming.

Uganda Police should take note: MANAGEMENT OF CASES WITH CHARGES PREFERRED UNDER THE ANTI-HOMOSEXUALITY ACT 2023.

[Amnesty International @amnesty]

Uganda must not only repeal the Anti-Homosexuality Act but also ensure accountability for the ongoing violations against the LGBTI community in the country.

[Openly 🏳️‍🌈 @Openly]

🇺🇬 A Ugandan man has been charged with 'aggravated homosexuality' and could now face the death penalty.

🏳️‍🌈 The 20-year-old is the first to face the charge since Uganda enacted some of the world's harshest laws targeting the LGBTQ+ community in May.

We are playing our part.

I am against homophobia, transphobia, and biphobia.
