Why are eight former Indian Navy personnel detained in Qatar's capital Doha? The family members seem very worried as there is no response from the Qatar authority in this regard so far. Among those detained is Commander (Retd) Purnendu Tiwari, an Indian expatriate who was awarded the Pravasi Bharti Samman Award in 2019. According to the information available on the company's website, Purnandu Tiwari has commanded many large ships in the Indian Navy.

 

Tiwari's sister Dr. Mitu Bhargava expressed concern

Here Tiwari's sister Dr. Mitu Bhargava said that we are worried a lot. We are not able to get the answer under which charge my brother has been detained. It's been 70 days since he was detained. The government of India should try to release it at the earliest.

 

Foreign Ministry's efforts continue

The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) assured that the Indian Embassy in Doha is making every effort for the early release and repatriation of eight former naval officers from Qatar. The Foreign Ministry said that after getting consular access from the Qatari government, we have to know their condition, but the government is yet to get information on what charges they have been arrested for.

 

All of them were working in a private company in Qatar.

According to media reports, after retiring, all these sailors were working in a private company in Qatar. The company provides training and other services to the Qatari Emiri Navy. According to media reports, the name of the company is Dahra Global Technology and Consultancy Services. The company describes itself as a local partner of Qatar's defense, security, and other government agencies.
