As it had done just over a month ago regarding Antigua and Barbuda’s buggery laws, the Eastern Caribbean Supreme Court (ECSC) yesterday stuck down similar legislation in St. Kitts & Nevis.
Justice Trevor Ward QC found that Section 56 and 57 of the Offences Against the Person Act contravened Sections 3 and 12 of the Constitution of the Federa-tion of Saint Christopher and Nevis.
The latter two provisions provide for the right to protection of personal privacy and the right to freedom of expression.
