   A gay man in Cameroon who was jailed for sending a text message   
   to another man saying “I’m very much in love with you,” and who   
   was later declared a prisoner of conscience by Amnesty   
   International, has died, according to a lawyer who worked on his   
   case.   
      
   Roger Jean-Claude Mbede, 34, died Friday roughly one month after   
   his family removed him from the hospital where he had been   
   seeking treatment for a hernia, lawyer Alice Nkom said.   
      
   “His family said he was a curse for them and that we should let   
   him die,” she said.
