They were unaware of the vigilante group in the area, and they monitored all social vices in the area at the expense of the community.
The mob knew of such activities, and unfortunately, they were caught and manhandled, and the unfortunate happened.
LGBTQI+ remains a controversial issue in Ghana, with a private bill that aims to criminalize its activities in Ghana currently in parliament awaiting approval.
When passed into law, the Human Sexual Rights and Family Values Bill, aka the Anti-LGBTQ Bill, will impose harsh penalties on anyone found participating in or advocating LGBTQ+ activities in the country.
The parties avoided reporting the incident to the police, but we have a copy of their medical report, which is attached to the story.
