The UN’s top human rights official cited the “landmark” decision by India’s Supreme Court decriminalising consensual gay sex and urged more countries to bring their laws and practices in line with the fundamental equality of all their people.
UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Michelle Bachelet, during the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender/Transsexual and Intersex (LGBTI) Core Group event — ‘Violence against LGBTI Individuals: Extra-judicial, summary or arbitrary executions’ — on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly here on Tuesday, said that change is happening around the world.
On September 6, a five-judge Constitution bench of the Supreme Court of India unanimously decriminalised part of the 158-year-old colonial law under Section 377 of the Indian Penal Code which criminalises consensual unnatural sex, delivering a ground-breaking victory for gay rights in India.
Bachelet said: “More than 70 countries criminalise consensual same sex relationships, and also criminalise transgender people based on their appearance.
These laws subject LGBT people to long prison sentences, and in some cases physical punishment. They also implicitly encourage prejudice, hatred and violence. But laws can change”.

Gay marriage NEVER passed in even ONE VOTE. Gay marriage is a product of liberals packing the courts with judges who thought they were legislators.
The largest cultural changes our country has been put through arrived at the hands of ‘judges’ - who pissed on congress and elected representatives.
