Malaysian authorities raided a Melaka hotel over "gay-friendly" claims, seizing its license after finding condoms and towels, though no Syariah law violations were found.
Malaysian authorities raided a 37-room hotel in Melaka on January 13, 2026, after social media claims it marketed itself as “gay-friendly,” prompting a joint investigation by the Melaka Islamic Religious Department and Hang Tuah Jaya Municipal Council.
The raid found no direct violations of Syariah law, but officials seized the hotel’s operating licence and ordered a one-day closure after discovering condoms and towels in a trash bin.
The hotel’s owner was not present during the inspection.
The probe followed online allegations and the cancellation of a planned LGBTQ+ event, “Glamping with Pride,” due to safety threats.
No further details have been released, and the investigation remains ongoing.
