Gay rights activist Jason Jones has won a decade-long legal battle against Trinidad and Tobago’s anti-gay laws after the London-based privy council overturned a 2025 court ruling, The Guardian reported Tuesday.

The earlier ruling had outlawed anal sex. Jones welcomed the privy council’s decision, according to the newspaper.

The Guardian described the outcome as a landmark victory that could help efforts to overturn similar anti-gay laws elsewhere in the Caribbean. That potential wider impact remains uncertain.
