The purpose of the press conference was, reportedly not to castigate or blackeye any individual or any group of society, but\u00a0 to address and to dispel fundamentally the misconceptions and views that do not represent the recent court ruling on buggery and gross indecency, namely sections 14 and 16 of the Sexual Offenses Act 10:36 of the laws of Dominica.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On Monday April 22, 2024 the Dominica High Court ruled that sections 14 and 16 of the Sexual Offences Act which punishes homosexual sex, is unconstitutional. This recognizes the right of same-sex adults to have consenting sexual activities in privacy.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The ruling effectively decriminalizes homosexual sex in the country. The decision has far-reaching implications for human rights and the role of religion in Dominica.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI want to also say in clear and simple terms, let me emphasize that buggery is still a very serious offense within our stature,\u201d he said. \u201cThe notion that buggery is no longer an offense is false and fundamentally misplaced.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Blackmoore explained that what the court did in its recent ruling as per the challenges brought against the Attorney General representing the state, was to simply qualify the laws so far as section 14 which deals with gross indecency, and section 16 which deals with rape.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He explained further that two consenting adults within the confines of their privacy, \u201cthe police cannot bring charges against them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThe misconception that buggery only speaks to an act in that form, between man and man alone is false,\u201d he remarked. \u201cOur Sexual Offenses Act which is one of the most comprehensive in the Caribbean also, before that ruling penalizes two adults engaging in that kind of activity, even if they are within their private space and they consented, doesn\u2019t criminalize that act between male and female.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Furthermore, he pointed out that according to the laws of the country buggery still stands so far as it refers to minors, that is to say, \u201ca minor is defined according to our laws, below the age of 16.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cAnd as per our laws a minor cannot give consent,\u201d Blackmoore stated. \u201cSo even if the minor were to say yes that is not consent as per our laws.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He said the penalty for that is 25 years imprisonment.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThat still remains in the books,\u201d Blackmoore said. \u201cIf you are an adult and even if you are within your private space you do not consent to such activity, anybody violating you, be it a male or a female adult without your consent that is buggery and you will be charged by the police for that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, he said even if two adults were to consent they cannot be involved in that activity, \u201cat a public washroom, in the bamboo house in the gardens, anywhere within the public space.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Blackmoore warns that the individuals will be arrested.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Furthermore, Blackmoore indicated that this is not a lifestyle he subscribes to, \u201cneither I will ever subscribe to.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He said even if one does not subscribe to a particular lifestyle, \u201c within our democratic space, we have to abide and comply with the rule of law.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Minister for National Security and Legal Affairs Rayburn Blackmoore has made it clear that buggery remains a very serious offense in Dominica.
