A federal judge has struck down Arizona's ban on gay marriage, declaring it unconstitutional in a move that marks the latest in a series of victories for supporters of same-sex matrimony in America, court papers showed on Friday. US District Judge John Sedwick, in a ruling made public on Friday, wrote that Arizona restrictions on gay marriage were 'unconstitutional by virtue of the fact that they deny same-sex couples the equal protection of the law.'
