A Malaysian court ordered the government on Monday to return rainbow-coloured watches and accessories made by Swatch Group that were seized last year for designs celebrating LGBTQ rights, a prosecutor told Reuters.

馬來西亞法院週一做出裁決，要求政府歸還去年查扣的斯沃琪集團彩虹色手錶及配飾，原因是其設計涉及慶祝LGBTQ權益，1名檢察官向路透透露。

Homosexuality is illegal in Muslim-majority Malaysia, and rights groups have warned of growing intolerance toward the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer (LGBTQ) community in the Southeast Asian country.

在穆斯林為主的馬來西亞，同性戀行為屬違法，人權組織警告，該東南亞國家對女同性戀者、男同性戀者、雙性戀者、跨性別者和酷兒（LGBTQ）群體的排斥態度日益加劇。

In May 2023, Malaysia confiscated 172 rainbow-coloured watches from the Swiss watchmaker’s ’Pride collection’ from 16 outlets due to the presence of the acronym ’LGBTQ’ on the timepieces.

2023年5月，馬來西亞當局從16家門市查扣瑞士製錶商斯沃琪的「Pride 系列」172只彩虹色腕錶，原因是這些腕錶上印有「LGBTQ」縮寫。
