Interior Ministry

May I know why do you keep and let others insult Islam, Muslimsm, and Arabs in many threads in QL while you delete my last Questionnaire 60 seconds after posting it?

Shall I just copy all those insults of Qatar, Muslims, and Arabs and send it to Gulftimes and Al Rayya Newspaper tomorrow morning? or Shall i send it to the Interior Ministry to take care of this website that allows expatriates to insult and accuse Qataris and Muslims, Islam, and Arabs and ban any post against those insulters and accusers?

I already copied all I can and ready for delivering them all for the authorities this afternoon.

Lets if you will stay in your job or not by the end of this month

DOHA: Private security agencies will now be allowed to buy, import directly or hire arms and ammunitions for use from the Ministry of Interior provided they fulfill a set of strict criteria to be decided by the Interior Minister.

Staff members of a private security agency will, however, require special licences from the Interior Ministry to use a gun.

The manager of a security company which buys or hires weapons will be responsible for their safekeeping.

All private security firms will need special permits from the Interior Ministry to operate.

The manager of such a firm is to be essentially a former Qatari policeman or from any public security agency, including the army, navy or air force.

The Interior Minister can, though, exempt a company from this condition.

Some 29 people were missing after a vessel operated by a UAE-based group capsized about two nautical miles off Doha coast early yesterday, a spokesman for Qatar’s Ministry of Interior said.
According to official sources, five persons were rescued and one body was recovered while search for the remaining people continued late into the night.
Of the 35 people on board, 24 were employees of HBK Power Cleaning, a Doha-based company. The remaining comprised nine crew members and two employees of a catering company.

Qatari authorities fighting the menace of drug trafficking had their biggest success to date when they foiled an attempt to smuggle into the country more than 4mn Captagon pills worth over QR112mn, in a recent operation.
Captagon pills contain a mixture of the stimulants fenethylline and caffeine. Captagon was originally prescribed for treating severe conditions such as depression and narcolepsy.
The successful operation was the result of joint efforts exerted by different security agencies at the Interior Ministry, including the Drugs Prevention Department, State Security Agency, Preventive Security Department and Rescue Patrols (Al Fazaa) and the General Directorate of Civil Defence.

According to Press TV:

At least 13 people were killed and 20 wounded in post-election violence in the Iranian capital Tehran on Saturday, officials have said.

The casualties occurred after some 'terrorist elements' infiltrated the rallies. The armed terrorists set fire on a mosque and two gas stations and attacked a military post.

Despite a ban put by the Interior Ministry for any gatherings and warnings by Iranian police, protesters staged another rally in Tehran to protest to the June 12 election results, in which incumbent Mahmoud Ahmadinejad was re-elected by almost two-thirds of votes.

Just when we thought that people forgot about the danes. Here it comes again, this time in Doha. Apparently, lemming Rose Culture Editor of the Jyllands-Posten was in Doha last saturday. Being invited by DCMF. Outraged sms, emails, & local blog posts calling to close down the DCMF.

The Peninsula reported:

DOHA: Doha was seething with anger and resentment last evening with heated debates in majlises and drawing rooms and people exchanging angry messages — at least some calling Al Adeed (the security helpline set up by the Interior Ministry) after news that controversial Danish journalist, Flemming Rose, Culture Editor of the Jyllands-Posten, who had commissioned and published a series of cartoons derogatory to the Prophet Muhammed (PBUH) was in the city for the World Press Freedom Day conference.

The whispers grew into a raging controversy late in the evening with most citizens and expatriates alike upset with the news after Ahmad Ali, former editor-in-chief and now General Manager of Al Watan daily, in a signed editorial in yesterday’s edition of the newspaper lambasted the organisers of the Doha Center for Media Freedom for inviting Rose for the World Press Freedom Day conference. By inviting the controversial figure, who had insulted the Prophet (PBUH) by publishing the cartoons, he wrote, the Center’s head Robert Menard had insulted all Muslims. “Menard should know that there is a red line to media freedom and you cannot cross that border.” We cannot accept any media freedom that insults our dear Prophet,” Ahmad wrote.
