Members of the Ugandan gay community attend a funeral of a murdured activist David Kato, at his parental home close to the town of Mataba on January 28, 2011. Although the police claims it was most likely a petty crime, targeting Kato's money, many members of the gay and the human rights community hold the Ugandan government responsible for not battling the growing resentments against homosexuals in the Ugandan society. Homosexuality is illegal in many African countries and is punishable by a prison sentence. AFP PHOTO/Marc Hofer (Photo credit should read MARC HOFER/AFP/Getty Images)
