EU Slams Uganda’s Anti-Gay Law

EU Slams Uganda’s Anti-Gay Law

From News24.com:

The European parliament called on Ugandan authorities to scrap a controversial proposed law that would punish homosexuality with life in prison.

The parliament called on the authorities “not to approve the bill and to review their laws so as to decriminalize homosexuality”.

Observing that homosexuality is legal in only 13 African countries and a punishable offence in 38 others, the MEPs said the proposed Ugandan laws could have a domino effect on other nations “where persons are or could be persecuted because of their sexual orientation”.
