wow I am reading the link

you term it your father's 'lapse of judgement'....
its high treason! that puts many many people in danger..

lapse of judgement is putting on the wrong pair of shoes with a dress!
And if he has put many people in danger by committing espionage then sorry he does deserve to be in prison.

Your father did NOT consider you when he committed this pre-meditated crime which would have taken some planning.

This was a man prepared to sacrifice his family for greed ...not himself for necessity.

I am sorry your father betrayed you like this... but i certainly uphold Qatar's right to incarcerate him.
