English court to rule on final challenge to Trinidad's gay sex ban

An English court will rule on a final challenge to Trinidad and Tobago's colonial-era 'buggery' laws, which criminalize gay sex and could send offenders to prison for up to five years. Jason Jones, represented by former attorney general Anand Ramlogan, argues the laws are unconstitutional, facing opposition from the government and religious groups. The case could set a precedent for the Caribbean region.
