Uganda: 10 Year Jail Term for Pornography

Kampala — Businesses dealing in pornographic materials risk closure and the proprietors risk a 10-year jail sentence and a fine.

The sanctions are contained in the anti pornography bill government intends to table in Parliament for enactment next week.

Ethics and integrity state minister James Nsaba Buturo says pornography has contributed to moral decay and increased crimes.
