Boycott Qatar. Seriously.

This is pretty much an official act.

Gay man 'hunted' and gang-raped by police in Qatar ahead of World Cup
Daily Star (UK trash tabloid, but no reason to doubt this story)

A gay man who was living in Qatar has claimed he was lured to an hotel room where he was gang-raped by law enforcement officers.

“Ali,” who is from the Philippines but was working as an office assistant in Qatar, told how in 2018 he had received a message on a gay dating app from another man, who said he was a Turkish worker.

The man had offered him a substantial sum of money to come to his hotel room.

Ali decided to go, but when he arrived at the 10th-floor room, we was confronted by six men – who identified themselves as Qatari police.

Homosexuality is illegal in Qatar – usually carrying a penalty of three years in jail, although technically the death penalty can be imposed in some cases.

My intuition is this is typical of the place, but has become topical because there's a big "football" match there.
