Qatar says officials behind the forced examinations of women at its international airport after an abandoned baby was found earlier this month have been referred to prosecutors for possible charges.

In a statement, Qatar's Government Communication Office described the abandoning of the baby as the "attempted murder" of the child."The subsequent procedures taken by the authorities at the airport, including examining a number of female passengers, revealed that standard procedures were violated," the statement said.

They’ll make a bunch of ex-pats scapegoats for this when actual locals were probably behind it all. That’s how it works over there

And what about that atrocious act of strip searching girls as young as ten... oh wait... that was the Australian police

has anyone done a DNA test of the baby girl to get a guestimate of her nationality?

Wait, we’re still waiting for the report... 😂

Other Qatari (and other Islamic dictatorships) values include 7 years jail for sex outside marriage and “temporary” marriages for men, often with minors. 💕 our allies.

But Australia will still happily sell weapons/spy tech/military training to countries with laws that terrorise and punish women like Qatar and Saudi. Usual hypocrites.

The most disgraceful part of this story is that a baby was put in a rubbish bin inside a plastic bag with rubbish piled on top of her with the obvious intent to kill her. Yet the main concern for the ABC and Scotty from marketing was the feelings of adult women.

Someone should tell Qatar about DNA 🧬 Blood sample, and the end of middle age

Yet when NSW police strip search children that is apparently ok?!

I hope no females are planning to go to the 2022 FIFAWorldCup - you might get sexually assaulted at Doha airport by airport authorities and qatarairways personnel. What a bullshit place.

Hmm all for show or for real? Laws need to change around the world so this never happens to another woman or girl again!

They were sexually assaulted.

Sexual assault. They were sexually assaulted.

It was criminal offence, forced detention and sexual harrassment.

ScottMorrisonMP needs to ensure all of the officials involved are permanently excluded from Australia, without exception and the airline qrdupport be heavily sanctioned if not banned from Australia entirely. Aussies need to boycott Qatar QatarAirways

boycottqatar

yet this summer GladysB will be strip searching children and Scamo wont say a word

It would appear that the officials responsible will likely be charged with agrivated assault. I would also hope the the Qatar authorities will be making efforts to compensate the victims substantially for the trauma they endured.

'Incident was ... wholly inconsistent with Qatar's culture and values'. Yeah righto mate.. In Qatar sex and childbirth outside of marriage are criminalised.

Nothing more that a face saving exercise given the world-wide condemnation
