Kenyan Prisons Curb Gay Sex With Cameras

Following reports of homosexuality in the country's prisons, Kenyan authorities plan to resort to Big Brother, and not condoms, by installing surveillance cameras to deter inmates from having gay sex.

According to the Daily Nation, officials said the cameras were needed because of the difficultly of proving the allegations. Despite calls for condoms to be introduced to the prisons, HIV/AIDS prevention kits will not be distributed.

"We don't know what happens in the prison dormitories when the inmates retire to bed. We just receive claims that some inmates engage in homosexuality," said prisons commissioner Isaiah Osugo, according to the Daily Nation.

"In order to avoid speculation on the matter, we shall install closed-circuit television cameras in all dormitories so that we can catch the culprits," he said.
