Attorney Andrew O’Kola led by Senior Counsel Douglas Mendes represented the claimants in what has been coined a monumental victory for same-sex couples living in Antigua and Barbuda.
O’Kola told Observer, “This victory is a step closer to achieving an end to discrimination against persons whose sexual preferences in the privacy of their home may differ from others.
“The law is no longer seeking to police or legislate against what people do in their homes.
“Each consenting adult has a right to love and express love in the manner they choose, without the state’s intrusion.”
He continued, “This monumental decision gives those oppressed by archaic sexual offences provisions hope that they too can benefit from their fundamental rights as secured by a living constitution as interpreted by the court of law.
“Antigua and Barbuda now leads the Eastern Caribbean as having recognised the illegality of punishing a person for who they love.
“Consensual love should never be a crime,” O’Kola added.

third entry in catw, the arawak hustler! i had fun researching this one!! 💙 ^^

A historic moment was etched into the records when Tammy became the first hurricane to make landfall on Barbuda in October.
