Two men who said Kenyan police forced them to undergo the procedure to prove they have had gay sex launched the case, calling for the tests to be declared unconstitutional, but a Kenyan High Court has dismissed the case challenging the legality of anal tests as proof of homosexuality.
Judge Mathew Emukule in the coastal city Mombasa, said there were grounds in Kenyan law for the testing.
Homosexual acts are illegal in Kenya, punishable by up to 14 years in prison.
