Gambian President Yahya Jammeh told supporters that if he finds gay asylum-seekers, he will kill them.
The Advocate reported, via Under the Burka:
The president of Gambia has threatened to kill any citizen of his country who cites persecution of LGBT people in seeking asylum abroad.
“Some people go to the West and claim they are gays and that their lives are at risk in the Gambia, in order for them to be granted a stay in Europe. If I catch them I will kill them,” President Yahya Jammeh said in a speech in the city of Basse last week, according to African news service APA.
In February Jammeh said, “Gays are vermin.”
