Pretrial detention ordered of two Libyan diplomats in Qatar for fraud

The Public Prosecutor’s Office announced on Wednesday that it had ordered the pretrial arrest of the Financial Controller and his predecessor at the Libyan diplomatic mission in Qatar.

It said its investigation was based on a report submitted by the Audit Bureau.
