On August 1, 2014, the UN welcomed the decision of the Constitutional Court of Uganda (the Court) to annul the country’s Anti-Homosexuality Act. According to a news article, the anti-homosexuality law, which was promulgated in February, made “aggravated homosexuality” punishable by life in prison. The Court ruled that the law “was invalid because it had been passed by Parliament without proper quorum.” The Court’s ruling “on narrow technical grounds, preserv[es] the possibility that the measure could be revived.”
