Ten Ugandan police officers were charged with torture after allegedly caning 38 women and forcing them to swim in mud in Elegu, a town in the northern part of the country. Police have also arrested 23 people during a raid on a shelter for homeless lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender youth, accused them of disobeying orders by remaining in the shelter, and charging them with a negligent act likely to spread infection or disease.
