LGBT+ people live under persecution in Cameroon

LGBT+ people live under persecution in Cameroon By ANA Reporter Share CAPE TOWN – Cameroonian security forces have beaten, threatened and arrested at least 24 people, including a 17-year-old boy, in a ramped-up crackdown on lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT+) people, since February, Human Rights Watch (HRW) said on Wednesday. At least one of them was forced to undergo an HIV test and anal examination. “These recent arrests and abuses raise serious concerns about a new upsurge in anti-LGBT persecution in Cameroon,” said Neela Ghoshal, associate LGBT rights director at HRW. “The law criminalising same-sex conduct puts LGBT people at a heightened risk of being mistreated, tortured, and assaulted without any consequences for the abusers,” she said.

Bay Area Reporter :: Out in the World: Caribbean LGBTQ rights are at a pivotal moment, advocates say

LGBTQ Caribbean activists decades-long challenges against countries to gain equality are lining up in multiple courts, creating a potential tidal wave ushering in queer rights for the region. At least 11 legal challenges are in various stages of the judicial process, with some cases facing high courts in a make-or-break moment for the Caribbean s LGBTQ movement. Next week, the Privy Council in the United Kingdom is expected to release rulings for two of the region s most anticipated cases addressing same-sex marriage in Bermuda and the Cayman Islands. The Jamaican Supreme Court s March 8 hearing on same-sex marriage was postponed, said gay Jamaican activist and attorney Maurice Tomlinson. A new date has not been set. Tomlinson s decriminalization case against Jamaica s government has been heard once at the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights, in November 2019. The commission has been quiet since then.
