    Qatar critic sentenced to three years in prison: - It was almost macabre to witness
    Abdullah Ibhais, who has repeatedly commented critically on working conditions in Qatar, has been sentenced to three years in prison.

    Abdullah's hearing lasted less than a minute and the court gave no justification for the verdict, Ibhais' family writes in a press release.

    Abdullah Ibhais was arrested just hours before NRK was to interview him in Qatar in November .

    Ibhais was sentenced to five years in prison in April, after the court found him guilty of misusing public funds. Ibhais then appealed the verdict. Today, the sentence was changed to three years in prison.

    Ibhais was previously the media and communications director of Qatar's World Cup organization. He has been critical of the working conditions of the migrant workers in the country, which will host the World Cup in 2022.

    If he has been misusing public funds, he deserves 3 years. Same thing over in this country?

    If FIFA weren’t so bent, they’d do something about it. Sadly their form indicates that nothing in the future is likely to change unless their is a root and branch restructuring.
