“The controversial Sultan of Brunei is the leading bidder to buy New York’s Plaza Hotel and London’s Grosvenor House, angering gay rights activists who say he is a homophobe whose policies call for the stoning death of homosexuals.  The $2.2 billion sale, which is still being negotiated, would also include downtown Manhattan’s Dream Hotel.  Selling the luxury hotels is Indian tycoon Subrata Roy, who remains jailed in India and is hoping to use the proceeds from the deal to cover his $1.6 billion bond, the Times of London reported.  If the sale is finalized, Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah would join two other investors who already own the property, according to the the New York Post.”
