Female journalist pickpocketed during live coverage, Qatar police asked her to choose the punishment for the thief

The World Cup has started, and with it came some, unfortunately, inevitable things that come with mass gathering events. The world media reported that an Argentinian journalist, Dominique Metzger, was robbed during a live broadcast for a television station in her homeland.However, the news in itself would not be so interesting and unusual if it were not for the unusual reaction of the Qatari police.”The police asked me how I wanted to punish him. They told me that they would find him and insisted that I decide how the thief would be sanctioned, whether I wanted five years in prison, deportation,” said the victim of the robbery and continued: “I passed is a chill. I told them I don’t want to get involved in it and play the hand of justice, I just want my things back.”##NAJAVA_MECA_6824753##It seems that in Qatar the laws work a little differently, according to the ad hoc principle. Dominique gave the Argentinian audience a few more details about the whole situation.”What was my experience in Qatar? Well, they stole my wallet during a live broadcast. I was at the police station and there they guaranteed me that everything is under video surveillance and that they will find my documents, money, cards, the things I worry about the most”, the Argentinian woman explained and added: “It was a theft, but without any violence. I didn’t realize that I was robbed. At one point, we danced with some people and maybe it happened then. The locals notice that we are different and want to communicate with us. I went to take out my wallet to buy water and realized it wasn’t there.”
