It depends on which country you're talking about. In Persia, the penalty was death by hanging. the U.S., it was seen as a mental illness, and "patients" were sent to asylums. In Vietnam it was legal and there were no penalties other than social stigma.

Where in the bible is hell mentioned as per homosexuals?

It isn't specifically tied to them, but they (along with everyone else that doesn't go to Heaven...) do go there when they die. Take note of these facts. The term 'hell' comes from the Greek and Hebrew words 'Sheol' and 'Hades', both which refer to the common grave of mankind (& even animals). When people go there they return "to the dust" a.k.a. break down to the bare elements they were created from and cease to exist. (Ecclesiastes 3:19-20) During that breakdown process, the person feels/knows nothing; completely unconscious. (Ecclesiastes 9:5, 6 & 10) The idea of hell being a fiery place run by the devil is an idea drummed up by clergy (who were inspired by pagan religions) to keep parishioners in fear. It is not a Bible teaching. Homosexuality is a practice that Jehovah God does not agree with, and those that practice it (along with other things He's against) will not be able to benefit from the blessings of His kingdom, including everlasting life. (1 Corinthians 6:9-10) However, just like with the other sinful practices, if a person decides to stop doing those things and adhere to Jehovah's commands/principles, they can be viewed as "clean" from Jehovah's standpoint, enabling them to be able to gain His blessings. (1 Corinthians 6:11) (New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures)
