Cameroon jails men over gay sex
Three men in Cameroon have been sentenced to five years in prison for homosexual acts, which are illegal in the central African nation.
Two of the accused were in court in the capital, Yaounde, but a third man was sentenced in absentia as he had jumped bail.
Police said the men were arrested for having oral sex in a car.
They denied the allegations and their lawyer Alice Nkom said they were arrested for looking feminine.
