Sunday, November 30, 2008

Ian Heywood has been cleared of all charges relating to alleged industrial espionage in Qatar.

The judgement may be subject to appeal by Qatar Airways.

Heywood, 47, was the airline’s vice president of global sales and distribution until April this year.

He was arrested and detained at Doha airport as he attempted to leave the country on May 1.

The former BA boss was returning home to take up the role of commercial director at BMI.

He is believed to have spent 17 days in solitary confinement.

The Qatari carrier accused Heywood of trying to steal data during his notice period.

Qatar Airways is expected to respond to the decision in the next few days.
