Singapore issues 'stern warning' to Valencia FC fans

Singapore police said they issued a "stern warning" to a Spanish couple for protesting against billionaire Peter Lim's ownership of Spanish soccer club Valencia, and that the couple, reported to have been on honeymoon, have since departed the city-state. Police had last week impounded the passports of a 34-year-old man and a 30-year-old woman for investigation after the couple was found to have taken part in a "public assembly". Public assemblies include staging protests or publicising a cause and require an official permit. The authorities said they had "administered a stern warning" to the couple after considering the facts and circumstances of the case, and consulting the Attorney-General's Chambers. "The two Spanish nationals have since departed Singapore," the police said in an emailed statement late on Tuesday, without specifying when the couple departed the country.
