A Ugandan court has invalidated a controversial anti-gay bill signed into law earlier this year, saying the measure is illegal because it was passed during a parliamentary session that lacked a quorum.

Uganda’s president says he opposes an anti-homosexuality bill passed by MPs and that “abnormal” people should not be jailed or killed.

A British theatre producer arrested for staging a pro-gay play has had the case against him dismissed by a Ugandan court.
