Brunei Won't Enforce Death-By-Stoning Law For Gay Sex, Sultan Says

Sultan of Brunei Hassanal Bolkiah, seen arriving for meetings in Brussels last fall, now says his country will not impose the death penalty in cases involving gay sex and adultery.

After more than a month of criticism and a high-profile boycott, the sultan of Brunei says his country will extend its moratorium on the death penalty to include new Islamic laws.
