starobserver.com.au:

Singapore’s High Court has dismissed three fresh constitutional challenges to overturn the nation’s ban on homosexuality. Under Section 377A of the British colonial-era, the “gross indecency” of gay sex, public or private, is punishable with up to two years in prison.

The people who spearheaded this latest attempt to overturn the law – a DJ, a retired doctor, and an LGBTQI rights advocate – challenged the ban on male homosexuality as a violation of Singapore’s Constitution that protects equal rights.

However, while this 82-year-old law is rarely enforced and LGBTQI events take place in Singapore, Judge See Kee Oon who oversaw the case remained unconvinced.
