According to local media reports, the Supreme Court on Monday said it would start the process to hear the petitions filed by various individuals and organisations, who are opposed to the Delhi High Court's decision to decriminalise consensual same-sex sex between adults, on April 19.
Dr Kua Kia Soong, director of SUARAM or Suara Rakyat Malaysia (Voice of the Malaysian People), issued a press statement calling on "progressive Malaysians, political parties and organisations to stand up for the rights of all LGBT and the abolition of our outdated sodomy laws."
India's Supreme Court has refused to temporarily suspend a lower court's verdict legalising gay sex among consenting adults while it hears two petitions seeking to have the high court's decision overturned.
Homosexuality is a disease curable through yoga, says guru Baba Ramdev who has filed a Supreme Court appeal following the recent Delhi High Court judgment decriminalising sexual relationship between two consenting adults in private.
The Times of India – the world's largest-selling English broadsheet newspaper – and numerous other media outlets in the country hail the Delhi High Court's verdict which legalised sexual relations among gay men.
In a historic and eagerly anticipated judgment following an 8-year legal battle, the Delhi High Court on Thursday legalised gay sex among consenting adults by ruling in favour of a petition which sought a 'reading down' of Section 377 of the Indian Penal Code.
Vikram Doctor looks back at the struggles, considerations and strategies by the various NGOs involved with getting the petition written, filed and heard by the Delhi High Court after it was once thrown out on a technicality.
The Delhi High Court is due to deliver its much-awaited verdict on a petition seeking decriminalisation of same-sex relations at 10.30am IST (Indian Standard Time / GMT +5:30 hours).
