On Thursday 6 Dec 2007 our new Honda CRV was stolen from outside our son's Nursery School (Elder Tree Nursery), near 'The Mall' roundabout. I was dropping our 2 year old son, had left the car running (as many parents do), came back after 2 minutes and the car had vanished. The school does have a CCTV camera outside the front and side of the nursery, but apparently it does not record anything.
Even though my mobile phone was still in the car, and was able to be called for the first hour, there was little the police could do, but file form and wait. We have driven all over Qatar hoping to find the car (our friends too), but no news.
The car was fully loaded with Kiddie-stuff,including two childrens car seats (our Daugther is One, and Jack Two), as well as two strollers and several toys/nappies etc.It would have been obvious to the THEIF that the car was used as a children-ferry.
We have been living in and residents of Qatar for more than 5 years, and have never come across anything like this before.We believed that Qatar was a safe place.We learn an EXPENSIVE lesson.
The car registration is 38279, and is a 2007 model Honda CRV, Glacier blue Metallic (blue-gray) color. The back windows are tinted for the kids.To alert all parents or guardians dropping kids at school, do not Leave the car / leave the car Running - ANYWHERE!
Please let other parents know about this, so the same does not happen to them. And if anyone should find our car, please contact us:
ok this is what happen....
