'Homosexuals, pack and leave': Mob attacks 14 young men in Nigeria
A mob armed with wooden clubs and iron bars, screaming that they were going to “cleanse” their neighbourhood of gay people, dragged 14 young men from their beds and assaulted them, human rights activists in Nigeria said today.
Four of the victims were marched to a police station, where they were allegedly kicked and punched by police officers who yelled pejoratives at them, said Ifeanyi Orazulike, of the International Centre on Advocacy for the Right to Health.
