Brunei's Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah has extended a moratorium on the death penalty to incoming legislation prohibiting gay sex, seeking to temper a global backlash led by celebrities such as George Clooney and Elton John., or sharia, on 3 April, punishing sodomy, adultery and rape with death, including by stoning.Brunei has consistently defended its right to implement the laws, elements of which were first adopted in 2014 and which have been rolled out in phases since then.
Some crimes already command the death penalty in Brunei, including premeditated murder and drug trafficking, but no executions have been carried out since the 1990s. The vastly wealthy sultan, who once piloted his own 747 airliner to meet former US president Barack Obama, often faces criticism from activists who view his absolute monarchy as despotic, but it is unusual for him to respond.
OK.. good, but Brunei is a minnow to the shark that is Saudi Arabia... where is the outrage about Saudi Arabia....?
Mr sultan you have already shown your inhumane mindset. Won’t “enforce” means nothing.
just waiting for it to blow over, then he'll do it anyway.
Too late
