it happened fairly recently.
I'd also heard that the government had requested from this same congregation a list of all its members -- which was supplied. Unsure whether this happened before or after the incident in question.

I also heard of some religious folks who got into trouble for distributing Bibles up in some worker camps in the Industrial Area awhile back (maybe 1-2 months ago). I don't think it's related to this current deportation, but I could be wrong on that count.

PM -- I know, I just try not to think about all that stuff too much...it'd turn me into Mel Gibson in Conspiracy Theory. LOL!

To be fair, a number of the hyper-religious Christian groups here DO consider it their duty to spread the faith...and as I said, if that was what happened here, prosletyzing, then I have no problem with Qatar giving them the boot. But as with every other issue here, it's the lack of information made public, the lack of transparency on the issue that I find frustrating, and that creates the rumor mill, and this sense of doubt that the authorities are treating people fairly.
