E/CN.4/1991/56 page 43 Uruguay "As a result of a serious offence, a multiple homicide that occurred in 1988, which deeply affected the public, the Executive sent a message and bill to the legislature amending an article of the Penal Code and qualifying criminal behaviour on racial or religious grounds as a separate offence. Article 1 of Act No. 16,048 of 16 June 1989 replaces the provision of the Penal Code concerning incitement to hatred towards certain persons for racial or religious reasons. Article 149 bis of the Penal Code stipulates: 'Anyone who, publicly or by any means capable of being used for public dissemination, incites to hatred, contempt or any form of moral or physical violence against one or more persons because of the colour of their skin, their religion or national or ethnic origin, shall be liable to six to 18 months' imprisonment.' Article 149 (para. 3) states: 'Anyone who commits acts of physical or moral violence, hatred or contempt against one or more persons because of the colour of their skin, their race, religion or national or ethnic origin shall be liable to 6 to 24 months in prison'."
