At least 21 persons suspected to be lesbians, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer and intersex (LGBTQI) have been arrested in the Volta Regional capital of Ho, the police announced on Friday 21 May 2021.
The suspects, made up of 16 females and five males, were rounded up at a workshop, a statement from the police said.
The court on Friday remanded them into police custody “for unlawful assembly.” The case has been adjourned to 4 June 2021.
This is the third time in three months that the police have clamped down on the activities of LGBTQI in the country.
