Kampala - Several hundred people demonstrated in the Ugandan capital Kampala on Tuesday against gays and lesbians, and expressed support for the country's impending tough anti-homosexual law.

The protesters marched to the parliament where they presented a petition.

The bill would see gay men and lesbians sentenced to life imprisonment for having sex, and a death sentence for sex with minors.

Anyone failing to report a homosexual act committed by others would face up to three years in jail. - Sapa-DPA
