Gay Inmates Tie The Knot Inside Cyprus Prison

(NICOSIA, Cyprus) — Former heroin addict Kevork Tontian met the man he wanted to spend the rest of his life with behind bars. And not even his freedom was enough to keep him away from Wemson Gabral da Costa. Tontian, a Cypriot, says that after being released from Cyprus’ central prisons complex two years ago, his longing for da Costa coupled with his family’s rejection of his homosexuality and disenchantment over bleak job prospects drove him to break the law again just so he could rejoin the Brazilian national back in prison.
