A female politician from Tororo wants Uganda to create a public list of sex criminals. Sarah Opendi believes showing these names would stop more attacks and keep communities safer. The country already keeps secret records but regular people cannot see them.

Opendi thinks employers should know when someone has committed sexual crimes against others. She wants the government to mark their national ID numbers with special warnings. A young woman who survived an attack by her father supports this idea completely.

Parliament members are looking at a new law about sexual crimes right now. The proposed rules would let government agencies track convicted offenders through their personal details. Courts would have to report any changes to the system within ten days.

Uganda recorded over 14,000 sex crimes last year according to police reports. About one million women face some type of sexual violence each year across the country. Several other nations like America already use public databases to warn citizens about dangerous people living nearby.

Women's rights groups have been asking for these changes since 2020. They believe open information helps prevent repeat crimes and protects vulnerable people better. The East African region discussed similar tracking systems almost ten years ago.
