And in NewsWrap: Rainbow Russians qualify for Olympic arrests, Nigerian anti-LGBT law gets national bishops' blessing, Ugandan lawmakers insist there's a "cure," Scotland's Parliament pipes up for marriage equality, theater thugs disrupt Sarajevo LGBT film fest, Pride marches on in Melbourne and Mumbai, and more news reported by Sarah Sweeney and Rick Watts (produced by Steve Pride).
