Swords smuggling
Doha port customs officers foiled an attempt to smuggle large quantity of Samurai swords of various sizes arriving from Iran hidden between lemon, soap and bread sacks. Officers discovered the swords when they opened boxes marked 'lemon,' 'soap' and 'bread.' The swords and suspects were sent to concerned authorities.
Domestic violence
A citizen told police "I am not sorry for beating her and I thank Allah that I only beat her and nothing else," as he was summoned following a complaint for beating his wife. He beat her as she was on the pill without her husband's knowledge. A security source said police received a call about a domestic violence case, so they went to the house in Andalus and called an ambulance which took the wife to Farwaniya hospital. The husband said he saw the contraceptive pills, adding that her lack of pregnancy was disturbing him. Meanwhile the wife said she wanted to postpone pregnancy as she is still young (in her 30s). - Translated from the Arabic press
