I just had a drink driving issue, and will have a court.. How serious this can be?? will it lead to deportation or cancellation of my drivers license??
When i was in prosecution department, they asked me to pay QR 2,000 riyals not to be in prison. And when i went to police station, they took all my finger prints.. Am confused, they cannot answer me, how serious it is.. Am currently in London now to visit my family, am confuse if i should go back to doha to face it or might as well not come back..

You cannot be the sharpest tool in the garage. Anyone coming to gulf countries knows stick laws are in force regarding drinking. Yet you choose to drive after a drink. Whatever you are taking to make you stupid is working.

are you one of those stupids who dont care a hoot about the law in Qatar?

There is no limit here except zero.

You broke the law, got caught, managed by some means to get out of the country.

Stay there, you are a danger on the roads if you drink no matter wherever you are.

If you do not know an influental Qatari, you really should not come back. But it's up to you.

It is a serious offense and could land you in trouble but can't say anything now.

I think you will be ok but please get someone to go with you.

Get representation FGS. Even a trustworthy Qatari friend who can speak on your behalf. I know several people who have been deported and have come across a few who have been let off.

There is zero-tolerance for drink and driving. And since you are not an Al Kuwari you will be punished.

You did just what the owners of the nursery at Villagio did. Stay where you are. They WILL make a difference between Qatari and non-Qatari.
