Hotel raids net unmarried couples

Fifty-two unmarried couples could face charges of sexual misconduct and jail terms after being caught in hotel rooms by Malaysia's Islamic morality police.

Scores of officers conducted raids on budget hotels on New Year's Day in the western state of Selangor.

Those detained in the early hours of New Year's Day were mainly students and young factory workers.

The Muslim couples are expected to be charged with the offence of close proximity, or Khalwat.

Under Malaysia's Islamic Sharia Law, couples who are not married to each other should not be in a secluded area or confined space, which could give rise to suspicion that they were engaged in immoral acts.

A spokesman for the Selangor State Islamic Department says they chose New Year's Day because many people are known to commit this offence when celebrating a major holiday.

If convicted, the couples could get a maximum penalty of two years in prison and a fine.

Sharia laws in Malaysia apply only to Malay Muslims, who make up over half the population.

Why didn't they get themselves a temporary marriage from a mullah? Guaranteed to fool Allah you know.

I bring the steaks for the barbecue, who brings the beer?

Well, but we shouldn't roll our eyes too much at those medieval practices. 40 years ago, my grandparents commited the crime of procuration for allowing my dad to sleep over at their house before my parents got married :roll:
On second thoughts, it worked, they got married :lol: :lol: :lol:
