Senegal tables bill to criminalize homosexuality

Deputy Cheikh Abdou Mbacké Bara Dolly wants the provisions of paragraph 3 of article 319 of Law No. 65-60 of July 21, 1965 on the Penal Code to be modified.

This, so that henceforth, anyone who has been recognised will be punished with a sentence of 10 to 15 years' imprisonment and a fine of 1,000,000 CFA francs to 5,000,000 CFA francs, without the possibility of granting mitigating circumstances.

This is what he included in his bill tabled this Monday in the National Assembly.
