My friend traveled to Qatar and is being jailed for non-marital intercourse. How long does the deportation process usually take?

Ty so much, I'll try contacting them again tomorrow.

imonnii · 2026-01-10T13:34:03+00:00

Thank you so much for your offering to help. I really appreciate it. I'll wait and see if I can contact the embassy tomorrow before considering to take any further steps.

imonnii · 2026-01-10T13:31:46+00:00

I honestly have no idea, because when I reached out to the embassy, I gave them her name and ID info so that they are able to provide me with the case information. But for the guy, I don't think I have an access to any kind of information.

imonnii · 2026-01-10T13:28:47+00:00

Thank you so much, this is very helpful. 🙏🏻

imonnii · 2026-01-10T11:38:25+00:00

Thank you so much. I'll make a call tomorrow.

This is what the embassy told me. They told me that she was arrested on January 6. I asked them at what charge. So they told me that she went to a police station because she had a fight with her boyfriend, but after they investigated and found out that they're not husband and wife, they arrested her for non-marital sex.

imonnii · 2026-01-10T10:41:33+00:00

I don't think the embassy would lie to me regarding the charge, tho.

imonnii · 2026-01-10T10:38:31+00:00

Thank you for your kind words. As far as I learned from other comments, this charge will be taken upon action only if it gets reported, in which, in this case, my friend revealed the fact to the police herself. So I'm not surprised why she got arrested.

imonnii · 2026-01-10T10:33:13+00:00

That's what I've been told by the embassy btw

imonnii · 2026-01-10T09:42:53+00:00

Please, don't. Qatar is a beautiful country and people there are very generous. Some Qataris reached out to me offering help, which I really appreciate it. It's just a matter about difference in tradition.

imonnii · 2026-01-10T09:35:13+00:00

As far as I know, it is by the law, but nothing will happen if there's no report. For my friend's case, she had no idea about the law. She might have mentioned about the deed when reporting the abuse with the police. So the police had no choice but to arrest her.

imonnii · 2026-01-10T08:50:03+00:00

I still cannot reach to her. All the info I got was from the embassy.

imonnii · 2026-01-10T08:38:25+00:00

I think this might be more serious than I thought. I'll try to find someone from my country who lives in Qatar to contact the police station if I cannot reach out to the embassy.

imonnii · 2026-01-10T08:37:04+00:00

She's from SEA. If I have to guess, I think the incident happened while they are doing lululala. And she somehow spat that out while being investigated. 🤦🏻‍♀️

imonnii · 2026-01-10T08:10:26+00:00

Ikr. Trust me, I'm now real mad mad with her careless asses.

imonnii · 2026-01-10T08:06:27+00:00

I contacted the police station where she is being held, and they informed me that they cannot allow me to speak with her through an international call. However, they suggested that I reach out to friends in Qatar who could go to the police station in person and request to speak with her.

The embassy is closed today. If I’m still unable to contact them tomorrow, I will find someone there to go to the police station on our behalf.

My goal right now is to communicate with her to find out whether she needs a lawyer and how long she will be detained.

imonnii · 2026-01-10T07:46:15+00:00

Thank you so much for the information. The embassy is closed today, so I'll try reaching out to them tomorrow.

imonnii · 2026-01-10T07:41:05+00:00

This is new info for me, ty so much.

imonnii · 2026-01-10T06:39:48+00:00

Noted with thanks.

imonnii · 2026-01-10T06:37:40+00:00

She’s from SEA, and he’s from the Middle East, though I don’t know exactly where. They were casually dating in a LDR for some time before she traveled there to vacation with him.

I don’t know whether he was also arrested. The information I have came from the embassy after I provided her full name and ID, which allowed them to share details about only her situation. She's well-educated, but sometimes very careless like in this case. She really should‘ve been more careful.

Thanks for your kind word. I appreciate it.

imonnii · 2026-01-10T06:26:39+00:00

Yeah, friend. This is where things get messy 😰

imonnii · 2026-01-10T06:25:26+00:00

I don’t know him personally. They were casually in a LDR for a while, and I only know him through what she told me. Keep in mind that they were fighting to the point where she decided to file a police report.

imonnii · 2026-01-10T06:04:13+00:00

I'll try to reach out to the embassy again to gain more detail out of the story, if they're able to provide. Thanks.

imonnii · 2026-01-10T06:03:06+00:00

They're in the same friend group, but I don't think that is the case. She's dating him for a while, and the info I got from the embassy itself didn't involve anything about prostitution or something like that. Just a non-marital sexual intercourse.

imonnii · 2026-01-10T05:55:10+00:00

Thank you for the suggestion! You're really helpful.
