High Court to hear Swatch Malaysia’s bid to challenge watch seizure on Aug 23 FMTNews FMTEng

Officers from the home ministry seized 172 watches from various Swatch outlets between May 13 and 15, claiming the items have elements of promoting the LGBTQ community.

Senior federal counsel Irmawatie Daud, appearing for the government, said they have no objections to the amendments. Swatch claims the seizure is illegal as the watches are not defined as a form of “publication” under the Printing Presses and Publication Act . Swatch Malaysia also says some of the timepiece models among the 172 seized watches have been sold in Malaysia for more than a year. It says it had not been notified of any complaints regarding the watches by the ministry either.
