A Botswana gay and lesbian group, LEGABIBO,
(short for Lesbians, Gays &Bisexuals of Botswana)
has won a landmark legal case in the Botswana
High Court and they can now be officially
registered as a group.
The judge Terrence Rannowane, who ruled, said
that the refusal of the government to register the
group was unconstitutional. In his verdict, he
declared "It is also not a crime to be a
homosexual." The verdict was passed today,
November 14.
