Human rights groups are calling on the government to let two gay Iranian refugees leave Nauru and settle in Australia.The two men say they live in fear of violence in a country where gay sex is illegal.
The Human Rights Law Centre says the men have been bashed and only leave their unit when given a security escort by an Australian government contractor.
The Centre's Director of Advocacy and Litigation, Anna Brown has told S-B-S Radio News .. both have been found to be refugees, having come from Iran where they risked public execution for being gay.
