These two men have become celebrities for the horrible treatment they received from the Malawi government. They were sentenced to 14 years hard labour for performing an engagement ceremony. Their official conviction was for gross indecency and unnatural acts. Malawi president Bingu wa Mutharika ordered their immediate release following pressure from around the world. The asshole was far from happy about it but I hope it sends a message that this is unacceptable.

This is awesome news! I hope this sends a strong message to other homophobic governments.
