- Police in Tanzanian on Wednesday said they had arrested 12 men, including two South Africans and a Ugandan, for presumed homosexuality as part of an ongoing crackdown against gays.
"We arrested the criminals at (the hotel) Peacock — they were promoting homosexuality. Two are South Africans, one Ugandan and nine Tanzanians," Dar es Salaam police head Lazaro Mambosasa said at a weekly press conference.
"Tanzanian law forbids this act between people of the same sex, it is a violation of our country's laws," said Mambosasa.
