Protect the rights of the LGBTIQ community: Premnath C. Dolawatte

Date:

Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna (SLPP) MP Premnath C. Dolawatta says that the laws provided by the Penal Code affecting the people of diverse sexual orientations, gender identities, expressions and sex characteristics including the LGBTIQ Community in Sri lanka must be repealed.

The private motion that has been granted to the President Ranil Wickramasinghe today (24), was tabled in Parliament the day before(23) and through that, the MP suggests that the transgression in civil-liberties of the LGBTIQ community enforced via the Penal Code (Amended) (19th Authority) should be ceased.
