A Polish court has allowed an anti-gay symbol to be used as an official emblem of a fringe far-right party, the National Rebirth of Poland (NOP), the PAP news agency reported.
The symbol shows two matchstick men having anal intercourse, under the slogan Zakaz Pedalowania, a slang expression that translates as “Outlaw Queers” or “Ban Buggery”.
A Warsaw prosecutor appealed the ruling legalizing what a human rights organization has called a “shocking” symbol.
The Helsinki Foundation for Human Rights said that it was “surprised” and “shocked” by the court's decision.
