Factsheet on Shari\u2019a and LGBTI Persons \u2013 In some countries around the world, criminal laws provide for the death penalty based\u00a0on religious interpretations. This factsheet highlights countries with death penalty laws that target the LGBTI community. All of the 10 countries where consensual same-sex relationships are formally punishable by death justify denial of rights and personhood based on official interpretations of Shari\u2019a. This factsheet provides an overview of the international human rights standards relevant to the official enforcement of religion-based laws imposing capital punishment on LGBTI persons. It also explains how laws that make same-sex relationships subject to the death penalty violate the human dignity and rights of LGBTI persons and embolden societal hostility, discrimination, and violence against them.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
