Gay couples will be able to openly hold hands, cuddle and kiss at the Qatar World Cup, despite public displays of affection being outlawed by the Arab state, it has been revealed.

Despite the new development, it's feared that once the World Cup is over, LGBTQ+ people in the country who enjoy the temporary freedom will be punished anyway.

According to Mail Online, FIFA has held secret meetings with Qatar's Interior Ministry and persuaded it to stop officers from its Preventive Security Department from arresting gay ers at the World Cup.

Undercover spies from the ministry were reported to be set to mingle among fans and haul so-called offenders into custody.

Speaking through her office manager, a lesbian secretary told Mail Online: 'The World Cup has given us the protection we need for maybe a month.

'But you will find very few Qatari gay and lesbian people who will believe there will be no repercussions after the World Cup is over.

'There may not be trouble while football is here, but they will catch up with Qatari people after, beat and jail us for what they see as shaming the country.'

The 30-year-old added: 'As a lesbian woman, I will enjoy the World Cup like other fans, but you won't see me hugging my girlfriend in Doha. No way.

'We will keep our relationship private like many others here.'

Despite the temporary measures, official Foreign Office advice for travelers remains the same, stating simply that 'homosexuality is illegal in Qatar.'

Foreign Secretary James Cleverly had warned England and Wales ers last month: 'These are Muslim countries; they have a very different cultural starting point (from ours).

'I think it's important when you're a visitor to a country that you respect the culture of your host nation.'

The decision to stage the World Cup in Qatar, a country where homosexuality can be punishable by death, has been attacked by gay and human rights organisations since the country was announced as the 2022 host.

'LGBT+ people there can be subjected to police harassment on the street and in shopping malls for merely 'looking' gay,'' British human rights campaigner Peter Tatchell wrote for MailOnline.

'There are reports of LGBT+ people being entrapped by police using gay dating apps and being murdered in 'honour' killings by their families,' he added.

Since Qatar has accepted to host the world cup, they must also allow all these nonsense while the tournament lasts. I read on the BBC that they'd not allow people drink alcohol around the stadium area. Meanwhile Budweiser is one of the official sponsors.
If you know you'd not accept some practices to encroach on your policies or faith, always think deeply before you take any offer cos there may be some factors surrounding it which you may not see until after you've accepted the offer. This applies in all walks of life

Worst world cup ever. They should not even allow them to kiss or hug sef angry Fvck LGBTQ

FIFA shouldn't have granted Qatar the hosting right.

No wonder Sepp Blatter ited to making a mistake to hand them the hosting rights.

These Qatar people no know anything about ball, they only wanna make money via tourism.

Na only Ronaldo and Messi these people know. And maybe Neymar and few others.

If you ask them who is Torres or Drogba, them fit no know that's how the bounced Evra a day before yesterday and said they don't know him. A whole Evra?

Be sure that some evil people from the west will send infiltrators into Qattar whose primary duty will be to spread homosexuality and increase descent amongst the locals.
