Not True : Four Asians land in jail for cannibalism in Qatar

qatari's picture

UPDATE : This story is not true. The local press seems to have mis-reported it.

The rumours have been making the rounds on Qatar Living for a couple of days. The Peninsula is confirming the canabilism charges in this story:

Four Asians have been rounded up and produced in a criminal court on charges of cannibalism. They are accused of killing a colleague, also an Asian, and devouring his body, reports Al Sharq.

Rumours had been circulating in the city about a crime where a human flesh had been cooked and eaten. This has been now confirmed.

This is the first such incident of its kind reported not just in Qatar but in the region, the daily said. It pointed out the quartet chose to eat the body of the deceased to hide the fact they had murdered him.

The incident came to light when one of the four accused suffered from severe reactions after eating human flesh and was subsequently rushed to the Emergency Department of Hamad Medical Corporation (HMC).

Doctors attending to him sent him in for an X-ray. The result clearly showed the outline of a human finger in his stomach sending the doctors into a tizzy. They immediately gathered their wits about them and called in the police.

The hospitalised man was taken into custody and confessed to having eaten the flesh of a colleague along with his three cronies. His three accomplices were soon arrested and they admitted to having committed the crime.

The foursome was produced in a criminal court with the prosecution demanding that they be remanded to police custody for further interrogation. The court immediately acceded to the prosecution’s demand.

Legal circles said they presume the accused may be extensively interrogated to find if they had been involved in a similar crime here before.

Meanwhile, a report published recently by an Indian language daily published here identified the four accused as Vietnamese nationals and said their alleged victim was from Nepal. The daily, however, clarified the nationalities were based on rumours.

Now the only question is "what was really in that shwarma you are last night?" :)

Oh Ick! Don't worry though Aisha, I thought the same thing, why didn't they burn him? In Canada we have a serial killer right now that feed the bodies of the 50+ prostitutes he killed to pigs, cause pigs will eat anything. But I guess they couldn't do that since there are no pigs in Qatar. :P

when i was a young teener then. In my country, food stalls selling rice and viands for the busy people are in every streets of busy suburbs. My grandmother would tell us stories that some funeral parlors selling "_______" to unsuspecting side street food stalls and restaurants.

I don't know if it's true but since my grandparents' house is located beside a general hospital and they happened to be-friended hospital staffs (stewards, attendants,etc), it gave us the creeps. But,it sure did kept us away from the street food stalls.

drake said Interesting Observation ...

It's interesting that when a Western woman "supposedly" gets assaulted, everyone is crying for bloody murder.
But when a Nepali labourer gets killed and eaten everyone makes a joke about it.
Just an observation.

Well drake, these guys have been caught, and will be executed. And also sexual assault is a daily occurrence in Qatar, cannibalism is....
cannibalism, I mean what else can you do but make jokes?? It's too serious and scary and issue to be serious about.

Don't think so drake. Let's say it was a Nepalese female assaulted, no one would joke about it.
It's just the cannibalism aspect.
This has nothing to do with race. You may be able to call everyone who's posted in such a vein insensitive but certainly not biased.

Nobita said Cannibal story a hoax, says Vietnamese embassy ...

http://www.thepenins......

DOHA • The Vietnamese Embassy has objected to reports appearing in the media here over four Vietnamese cannibalising a Nepalese national.

An embassy release said: "Concerning the reports of the murder of a Nepalese national by four Vietnamese who then cannibalised their victim in Qatar in late June 2007, a full-fledged investigation was launched into the fictitious incident. And these reports have been confirmed as a hoax and false by concerned authorities of Qatar."

The Vietnamese side has requested that Qatari law enforcement investigate the source of the story as a precursor to pressing libel or slander charges against the culprit.

Some suspects in this case have been arrested by the police, said the statement.
