WA queer groups to protest Fijian consulate over gay jailings

WA queer groups to protest Fijian consulate over gay jailings:
Fiji High Court to hand down decision on Australian man today
26 August 2005

Gay and lesbian activists will hold a peaceful protest against the Fijian consulate in Perth at noon today to demonstrate against the arrest and jailing of an Australian man and a Fijian man since April this year.

Protesters from Gay and Lesbian Equality (WA) Inc., Queer Radical and the WA Cross Campus Queer Network will rally outside the consulate to highlight the case of Victorian man Thomas McCosker and local Fijian Dhirendran Nadan
"Fiji should be both condemned and shunned for its laws against consensual same-sex activity and its prosecution of Mr McCosker and Mr Nadan under Fiji's anti-gay law
