Social media is trending with images and videos of a man who has been deceiving men by pretending to be a woman. According to reports, the man attracted a number of men who would then press for intimacy but be rejected by never-ending stories.
Social media acknowledges that the man might have broken the law, but they also think that the people who were filming—whom they assume to be police officers—may have done so as well.
The alleged police officers must be detained for computer abuse, according to a section of social media users.
The newly amended Computer Misuse Act 2022, prohibits any person from writing, sending, or sharing information that is likely to ridicule, degrade, or demean another person, tribe, religion, or gender.
If found guilty, the punishment includes a fine of up to Shs 10 million, up to 10 years in prison, or both.
Here are a few of the reactions.
