Uganda: Constitutional Court upholds the draconian anti-LGBTQ law | DW News
Uganda's constitutional court has rejected an attempt to overturn its controversial "Anti-Homosexuality Act".
The law is one of the toughest in the world aimed at LGBTQ individuals. It imposes penalties of up to life in prison for consensual same-sex relations – and the death penalty for so-called 'aggravated homosexuality'. The legislation was challenged by two legal professors who argued that it violated fundamental rights guaranteed by Uganda's constitution.
For more on this, we talk to LGBTQ Activist Edward Mutebi, who joins us in the studio.
