LGBT rights in the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic, a partially recognized state that claims the non-self-governing territory of Western Sahara, face legal challenges not experienced by non-LGBT residents.[1]
Legality of same-sex sexual acts[edit]
Homosexuality is still punishable by imprisonment in both Western Sahara and Morocco.[2] Western Sahara is the only former Spanish colony in which homosexuality is still illegal.
