(Uganda) - Christian groups in Uganda held a protest rally on Tuesday against what they called an orchestrated promotion of Gays and Lesbians in the country. Police denied the demonstrators from the "Inter-faith Coalition against Homosexuality" permission to march through the capital Kampala for security reasons. Gathered on a rugby field outside the east African nation's capital Kampala, the roughly 100 anti-Gay activists displayed dozens of placards calling for the arrest of Gays and Lesbians. "We are fighting against the fresh campaign for homosexuality and lesbianism in this country," said organiser and pastor Martin Sempa. "Homosexuality and lesbianism break three laws; the laws in the Bible and the Koran, the laws of nature and the laws of the land, the Ugandan Constitution." Ugandan law punishes homosexuality with life imprisonment.
