Type
Anti-LGBT crackdown
Outcome
Hotels, bars, restaurants and other venues were shut down. Hotel owners were arrested for alleged connection of homosexual activities.
The Ethiopian government launched a crackdown on hotels, bars, restaurant and pubs in Addis Ababa for alleged homosexual activities on 10 August 2023. Security forces raided guest houses to shut them down and arrested managers linked to such acts. The Addis Ababa Peace and Security Administration Bureau stated that they were taking measures "against hotels, restaurants, guest houses, and other entertainment venues suspected of involvement in homosexual acts". The House of Guramayle, an LGBT advocacy group, is concerned that the LGBT community is being suppressed and that many self-identified gay, lesbian and transgender people are under attack on online platforms such as TikTok.[1][2][3]
