An unsuspecting user in one of the bathroom stalls in a mall in Ghana had the shock of his life when two gentlemen using the urinal started giving each other blowjobs.
In the video released on Twitter earlier today, two guys suspected to be in their 20’s were seen taking turns giving each other blowjobs.
The video which linked below (very graphic in nature) according to investigators, was recorded in one of the public restrooms in one of the Malls in Ghana. Speaking to one of the investigators, she said, this act constitutes a serious offence according to the laws of Ghana which is punishable by prison sentence.
According to Section 278 of Ghana’s Criminal Offences Act; “[w]hoever publicly and wilfully commits any grossly indecent act is guilty of a misdemeanour.” And by misdemeanour, this is a non-serious crime (light crime) punishable by a shorter prison sentence of fine.
Additionally, male same-sex sexual acts are illegal in Ghana punishable by up to 3 years imprisonment, although it is uncertain whether female same-sex sexual activity is legal. Homosexuality in Ghana was criminalised in the 1860s. In order to be guilty under the law, two elements have to be proved together. First, that the accused has had ‘carnal knowledge’ of another person, and secondly, that the said carnal knowledge was unnatural.
It does not matter that the other person gave consent to the act, nor does it matter that they are both over the age of sixteen. It is a trite point of criminal law that a person cannot be guilty of the offence unless both elements are proved beyond reasonable doubt. The police are looking for tips to help identify the individuals involved.
