U.S embassy warns of anti-gay crackdown in Tanzania
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.
#Tanzania Security Alert: There are reports of Tanzanian Government Officials calling for the arrest of LGBTI people and monitoring activity via social media. Employ sound security practices including monitoring local and international news. https://t.co/mnMEfXodUM @AmEmbTZ pic.twitter.com/nekawi869Y
