Ugandan Accused Of Transmitting HIV In Canada Gets Life In Prison


Johnson Aziga
A Ugandan man convicted of murder in Canada in 2009 for knowingly transmitting HIV to women was on Tuesday sentenced to life in prison.

Johnson Aziga in his 50’s, was in April 2009 found guilty of two counts of premeditated murder, and 10 counts of aggravated sexual assault for spreading the AIDS virus to his lovers.

Seven women were infected, and two have since died of AIDS-related complications. Aziga a “dangerous criminal,” meaning a commission will decide whether parole can be granted.
Aziga, a former employee of the provincial justice ministry, told the court he never intended to transmit the virus to the women, and that he had not revealed his status due to cultural and religious taboos in his homeland.

He said he wished to renounce his Canadian citizenship and serve out his sentence in Uganda or Kenya because he believed he had not received a fair trial in Canada, according to CBC public television. Prosecutors argued Aziga was at heightened risk of infecting other women if eventually released.
But his defense lawyers countered that during the eight years in prison since his 2003 arrest, Aziga had changed, learned of the health risks posed by his condition and would not repeat the same behavior. Agencies
