As the sultan of Brunei begins imposing death by stoning for homosexuality and adultery, celebrities push back against the swanky Beverly Hills Hotel and other properties in the sultan’s chain.
Brunei's Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah began rolling out Sharia law last week, which could result in death sentences for homosexuality and adultery.
Brunei is a tiny nation on the island of Borneo. The sultan first proposed imposing Sharia law in October 2013.
