KAMPALA, UGANDA — In a country where same-sex intimate relationships are forbidden by law, efforts to promote LGBT issues are sometimes met with a brutal response from the government. Police have shut down gay pride parades and people involved in them have been arrested, extorted, evicted and fired from their jobs. Sexual Minorities Uganda, an advocacy group, released a report in April documenting cases of persecution of gay and lesbian people, including 48 cases that involved violence. The August event will feature beauty pageants, community service opportunities, exhibitions and other activities.

Ugandan Ethics Minister Simon Lokodo, in an interview with local media Thursday, said present laws criminalizing gay sex — which in theory can come with a life sentence — were not tough enough. Uganda made headlines in when it introduced the anti-homosexuality bill that included a death sentence for gay sex. This involved petitioning the courts to repeal the law, lobbying MPs and encouraging international partners to impose economic sanctions, Byarugaba said. Transgender activist Javan officially named Ronald Mugisha told CNN she was not surprised by the move and has also vowed to challenge the homophobic legislation.
