Senegal Releases 5 Men Arrested In Gay Sweep
http://www.365gay.com/Newscon08/02/020708sen.htm

Senegal police on Thursday released five of the men arrested this week on charges of homosexuality that stemmed from the publication of pictures purportedly of a gay wedding.

Police will not say how many more are being held. Press reports have indicated between 7 and 20 men were arrested.

One of those released Thursday is reportedly a French national. Authorities say the release of the five does not mean charges have been dropped. The investigation is continuing and police say they are searching for several other men who may have fled the country.

A police spokesperson told the pro-government Le Soleil that those arrested were questioned over "gross indecency and marriage against nature".
