The offices of Ugandan lesbian human rights group Freedom and Roam Uganda (FARUG) were burgled on July 30 by people who used syringes to inject acid into locks in the building before breaking them open.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt seems they were looking for information and data – these are not ordinary thieves,\u201d FARUG activist Jacqueline Kasha said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe mood here is very low. Members are worried and traumatised.\u201d<\/p>\n
