Qatar strips citizenship of 5,000
2005-06-13
DOHA — Qatar has stripped the citizenship of 5,000 people, most of whom hold dual Saudi Arabian and Qatari nationality, government officials said yesterday.
"Get out and stay out!"
But they denied Arab media reports that the move was to punish some tribe members suspected of involvement in a failed coup in 1996. Officials did not say when the nationalities had been revoked and gave no further details.
