Social Media Posted June 13, 2023 Share Posted June 13, 2023 More people are set to be pardoned for historical crimes linked to homosexuality after changes in the rules come into force. From Tuesday, anyone convicted or cautioned for offences linked to same sex activity that have been abolished can apply for their records to be wiped. It will mean more veterans will be able to apply to erase convictions that were brought under service law. The plans were first announced last year and mean that those who were unjustly criminalised can be pardoned and their convictions deleted from official records. In the past, members of the Armed Forces were prosecuted for their sexuality under service law, which governed how service personnel were required to behave.
