On February 9th, the Sri Lankan government announced that it would support efforts to decriminalize homosexuality in the country! The announcement came after receiving recommendations from other United Nations member states during the country’s Universal Periodic Review (UPR). Sri Lanka received seven recommendations from the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, and Norway during the Universal Periodic Review regarding LGBTQIA+ rights. These recommendations include decriminalizing homosexuality, which is currently punishable by up to 10 years in prison in Sri Lanka’s current penal code. Foreign Affairs Minister Ali Sabry said, “The government will support its position of decriminalizing same-sex relationships. We are, however, not legalizing same-sex marriages. But, we would decriminalize it.” The country’s Deputy Solicitor General, Nerin Pulle, also pledged to amend Sri Lanka’s colonial-era penal code.
