Uganda’s parliament passed an amended version of the controversial anti-gay law
Uganda’s parliament has passed an amended version of the controversial Anti-Homosexuality Bill 2023 on Tuesday. Under the new proposed bill, homosexual conduct will still be illegal, but identifying as homosexual without conducting in homosexual acts will not be outlawed. The bill, however, retains its more extreme elements, including the death penalty for “aggravated homosexuality,” which includes sex with a minor, having sex while HIV positive and incest.
The bill previously suggested imprisoning those who identify as LGBTQ+, but now states that those who do not act on their “deviant proclivity” will not be punished by law. “The bill still remains restrictive, it’s not any better,” activist Richard Lusimbo told CNN Tuesday. Lawmakers also agreed to a proposed amendment that would change the bill’s decree of a “duty to report” acts of homosexuality.
