Germany to Deport Lesbian Ugandan Woman to Country with Anti-LGBTQ Laws
Germany plans to deport a 23-year-old Ugandan lesbian woman, referred to as Angel, to Uganda on Monday, July 20, 2026. She has been in deportation detention in Hof, Bavaria, since late May. Uganda has one of the world's harshest anti-LGBTQ laws, enacted in 2023, which can lead to violence, imprisonment, or the death penalty for homosexual acts. The Federal Office for Migration and Refugees (BAMF) rejected her asylum claim, stating she did not credibly demonstrate her sexual identity during the hearing. Advocacy groups criticize the high burden of proof for queer asylum seekers. Angel's partner, Consolate, fears for her life if deported. The article highlights the risks faced by LGBTQ individuals in asylum procedures and the dangers awaiting them in Uganda.
