In Today News article (http://www.todayonline.com/articles/187256.asp), Mr Thomas Koshy said:

"Indeed, for over 10 years, there has been no prosecution under section 377A for gay sex between consenting adults.

In July 2003, Mr Goh Chok Tong, then the Prime Minister, revealed that the public sector had begun employing openly homosexual people, even for sensitive posts."

Does this research shows how many of the cases involved "gay sex between consenting adults"?

If Yawning Bread does not have an answer, then I will just take Mr Thomas Koshy word:

"Indeed, for over 10 years, there has been no prosecution under section 377A for gay sex between consenting adults."
