Violations in Uganda

19 Aug 2011


A number of violations based on sexual orientation and backlashes are also to be reported in Uganda, starting with the murder of David Kato, in Kampala, in January 2011, and more recently the suspicious ‘burglary’ at FARUG (Freedom and Roam Uganda), a LGBT group, which has posed threats to the lives of other Ugandan activists.

Read below a series of contents regarding Uganda recently published at SPW’s website:
