Hi Everyone,
I need some help. Can the police help if one is slapped by a man friend without incriminating the lady?I mean man friend and not boyfriend.Ladies are suffering in silence coz of fear of losing their jobs n send back home. On the other hand men are getting away with it.Can someone give an honest opinion or will the police ask Are ya married? NO. Then what are ya doing with that man? Is it allowed to hav man friend or rather an opposite sex friend in Qatar? and If yes and there is harrassment of any kind Should there be punishment?

Good morning everyone,
Thanks guyz, am so happy for your honest answers and advice and I will definately go to the police now.
Thanx.

Yes, you can report this incidence to police. Especially, if he slaps you in public. Just bring a witness with you. A qatari would be perfect.

If the slap is still fresh... it still is a proof enough. just report this incidence so that the police will have a record of this man's violent actions. Later on, if he does this to another woman... police will know his inclination to physical offenses.

Hope you won't let this guy get away.

i know of the same case. the guy got a record and a small penalty. however, its worth it.

Yea you can have opposite sex friends here in Qatar and no one will question you if you are married or not unless caught in some stupid actions in public.
