A court in Budapest has overturned a prior police decision to ban a gay pride march in July.

The police headquarters refused to grant permission for the pride march back in April, but march organizers challenged the decision. The court ruled the march could take place as long as it stayed on a certain route, saying the police had no legal foundation for banning it.

Amnesty International welcomed the court’s decision on Friday. In a statement sent to MTI, AI Hungary director Orsolya Jeney said the decision confirmed all Hungarians’ right to the freedom of assembly as well as signalling a victory for the LMBT community. After this, police will be expected to ensure that the participants can freely practice their rights and they are protected from harassment and violence by groups that oppose the march, the AI added. 

Woohoo! Victories all over the globe, I tell ya.
