Mexico may OK conjugal visits for gay prisoners
A new anti-discrimination rule could permit conjugal visits for gay inmates in Mexico City prisons, a city official said. The city's secretary of government, Alejandro Encinas, told the newspaper Reforma for its Wednesday edition that under the regulation published Tuesday, requests by gay inmates for "intimate visits" would have to be considered, although no such requests have yet been made. Mexico permits conjugal visits for some inmates. Encinas noted that the rules require "a permanent, stable relationship" - though not necessarily marriage - between those granted the privilege.
