While there used to be 3 - 4 cases per week, the cases have more than doubled since the far-reaching anti-LGBTQ bill was sent to Parliament.
Now, we are 2 - 3 of human rights violations against LGBTQI persons per day
Unfortunately, the victims are sent to the police afterwards

The perpetrators did not only videotape their abuse to the victim, they also released the gruesome raw videos online to further disgrace him.
The attack took place at Nkawie in the Ashanti region.
They did not only physically abuse the victim, they verbally assaulted him.
