India has conveyed its profound dismay regarding the death penalty verdict rendered by the court in Doha, Qatar, to the eight former Indian Navy officials affiliated with the now-defunct Al Dahra company. This judgement as indicated by the Ministry of External Affairs, was delivered today.

In response to the news of this death penalty verdict, the Ministry of External Affairs statement affirming: “We are currently in contact with the family members and the legal team and are actively exploring all available legal avenues.” Furthermore, it was noted, “Our initial information suggests that the Court of First Instance in Qatar has issued a judgment pertaining to the eight Indian employees of the Al Dahra company.”

During a weekly briefing on October 19, 2023, the official spokesperson of the Ministry of External Affairs, Arindam Bagchi, responded to questions about the former naval officers. He revealed, “The case had its final hearing, the seventh hearing, earlier this month on October 3, 2023. We have been closely monitoring the proceedings in the Court of First Instance and anticipate a judgment later this month. Previously, our Ambassador and Deputy Chief of Mission met with the eight detainees on October 1 after being granted consular access.”

These eight officers are currently facing legal proceedings under Qatari law, with the seventh hearing of their case conducted on October 3rd in Doha.

The Indian government has been providing judicial support to these veterans, with consular access being granted on October 1st.
