A Spanish couple on their honeymoon in Singapore have been detained after protesting against the Singaporean owner of the football club they support.
Dani Cuesta posted photographs of himself outside the home of Peter Lim, the billionaire owner of Valencia CF, holding a banner criticising the business magnate.
Cuesta and his partner Mireia Sáez were stopped while trying to leave Singapore airport on Friday and had their passports confiscated, Valencia Mayor María José Catalá told Spanish radio station Onda Cero.
It is unclear what charges the pair face, if any, but the matter will be resolved later on Wednesday, the BBC understands.
Singapore has some of the world’s strictest laws on vandalism and public assembly, which includes assemblies even of one person.
The government says these laws are necessary to maintain order and safety.
