“The Women,s Support Group of Sri Lanka in their recently concluded qualitative study on violence faced by Lesbians, Bisexual women and Transgender persons (LBT) in Sri Lanka details specific case studies of physical violence, sexual violence, emotional violence, intimate partner violence and discrimination at the workplace. It is truly a shocking report. In addition, the report also provides a critique of the framework of laws that criminalise LGBT activity while violating the fundamental rights of LGBT persons.” Reference: “Not Gonna Take it Lying Down.” Womens, support group of Sri Lanka
