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 Yesterday, November 14.
