Lebanon justice minister says anal probe exams must end

The Lebanese minister of justice has publicly demanded an end to the
use of discredited anal probe exams to 'test' if men are gay

Lebanon's justice minister, Shakib Qortbawi, demanded earlier this
morning (1 September) an end to the use of anal probe exams used find
out if men are gay.

During an interview with the Lebanese paper Assafir, the minister said
the anal probe exams must stop, whilst acknowledging that the
judiciary is totally independent but requested they should listen to
his and the Lebanese Medical Association's opinion.

'In Lebanon there will be no more anal tests.

'The judiciary is independent but they should listen to us,' he said.
