Tue 21 Mar 2023 MPs in Uganda have passed a controversial anti-LGBTQ+ bill, which would make homosexual acts punishable by death, attracting strong condemnation from rights campaigners.
All but two of the 389 legislators voted late on Tuesday for the hardline anti-homosexuality bill, which introduces capital and life imprisonment sentences for gay sex and “recruitment, promotion and funding” of same-sex “activities”. Guardian
Blogger: I am unsure but I do not believe this headline is correct. I believe that the sentencing mentioned is for the practice of homosexuality.
