Qatar is up next in our list of countries that will kill you for being gay. It might be one of the richest countries in the world, but this doesn’t mean their laws are on par with the level of development they’ve reached thanks to the oil money. Human rights are one such area which leaves a lot to be desired.

Death penalty applies to Muslims only, while foreign non-Muslim citizens face fines, up to 7 years in prison, and subsequent deportation.
