U.S embassy warns of anti-gay crackdown in Tanzania

U.S citizens in Tanzania should review 'social media profiles' to avoid triggering anti-gay laws in the African state, U.S embassy has warned. Previously, a Tanzanian official announced a crackdown on LGBTQ people.

American citizens should review their social media presence for ‘images and language that may run afoul of Tanzanian laws regarding homosexual practices’, the U.S embassy in Tanzania said in a security alert published on its website.

This is most likely a good advice to any non Tanzanian LGBTQ people living and/or visiting Tanzania.
