Same-sex marriage campaigners take fight to Japan top court<br /><br />A group of protesters gather outside Japan's Supreme Court to call for an end to the ban on same-sex marriage, one week after Tokyo's high court ruled the ban to be constitutional. <br /><br />Japan remains the only G7 country without legal protections for same-sex unions. Conservative Sanae Takaichi, who became Japan's new Prime Minister in early October, opposes same-sex marriage. <br /><br />"The Tokyo High Court has handed down a highly unjust ruling," said lawyer Taijiro Ohata. <br /><br />ATISH PATEL / AFPTV / AFP
