In Qatar's capital Doha, apartment blocks of thousands of foreign workers living in the same area were evacuated. There will be arrangements for the stay of football fans during the World Cup. Workers evicted from the apartment have told this to the news agency Reuters.
More than 12 buildings were evacuated
The workers said that more than 12 buildings have been evacuated by the authorities. This forced mainly Asian and African workers to take shelter on the sidewalks. The move comes less than four weeks before the start of the global soccer tournament to be held on November 20.
Two hours are given to vacate the building
Residents of Doha's Al Mansoura district said 1,200 people lived in one building.
At around 8 pm on Wednesday, he was told by officials that he had only two hours to vacate the building.
He said that the municipal officials returned around 10.30 pm and forcibly pulled everyone out and closed the doors of the building.
Some people were not able to return on time to collect their belongings.
Five people were loading a mattress and a small fridge into the back of a pickup truck.
He said he found a room in Sumasima, about 40 km (25 mi) north of Doha.
Not related to the World Cup
A Qatari government official said the evictions were not related to the World Cup. All have been sent to safe and suitable accommodations. He said that the request to vacate the building would have been made with proper notice. World football's governing body FIFA did not respond to a request for comment and Qatar's World Cup organizers directed the government to inquire.
85% of foreign workers work in Qatar
About 85 percent of Qatar's 3 million population are foreign workers. Many of them work as drivers, daily wage laborers, or have a contract with companies. One person said the eviction affected only single men, while foreign workers living with families were not affected.
2010 law is being implemented
Qatari officials said municipal authorities are implementing a 2010 law that prohibits 'workers' camps within family residential areas. Some of the evicted workers said they hoped to find a place to live between purpose-built workers' housing in and around the industrial area on the southwestern outskirts of Doha or in the outlying towns, which are located near their place of work. far enough away from
