The Justice and Constitutional Affairs minister, Maj. Gen.Kahinda Otafire has reportedly started defending homosexuals; a practice looked as a taboo in Uganda.

Otafiire yesterday told a press conference in Kampala that the government should go slow on enacting a law that out laws homosexuality and lesbianism.

The minister says that he is aware that homosexuality is satanic, demonic, immoral and ungodly but enacting anti homosexual law would be difficult to implement.

Otafiire who is a lawyer told the press that even if the law against homosexuality is in place to prove in Court that a person is a homosexual is difficult. So he asked the religious leaders and traditional leaders and moralists not to develop pressure over the vice and leave the matter to God who will judge homosexuals on the judgment day.
