U.N. Committee holds that  Colombia failed to protect right  to benefits for same sex couple.
On May 14 2007, the U.N. Committee of Human Rights found that Colombia breached equality provisions of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR) when it rejected a pension transfer to a member of a same sex couple. The Committee stated that the refusal to grant X his same sex partner's pension amounts to discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation, which is prohibited under Article 26 of the ICCPR.
