David Kato, 46, an advocacy officer for the gay rights group Sexual Minorities Uganda, was found with serious head wounds at his home in Bukusa, Mukono District on Wednesday but died from his injuries on his way to hospital.

There were calls from the US government and the European Union asking the Ugandan police to “actively” and “vigorously” investigate the killing. A statement from the US Mission in Kampala said: “The United States calls on Ugandan authorities to actively investigate David’s murder and bring the perpetrator or perpetrators to justice.”

The Ugandan newspaper that last year called for the hanging of gay activist David Kato who was murdered on Wednesday, said it had no regrets about its story.

Giles Muhame, managing editor of the weekly Rolling Stone, said in a statement that he condemned the murder and felt "sorry for the family of Kato". But he also repeated various unproved allegations against the activist, and suggested he lived in an area where murder is common. "This looks like any other crime," he told the Guardian in a telephone interview. "I have no regrets about the story. We were just exposing people who were doing wrong."
