Qatar bans contractors leaving country in rain damage probe
(MENAFN- Arab News) DUBAI United Arab Emirates: Qatar has banned contractors from leaving the small oil-rich country as it carries out a probe into how heavy rains damaged buildings and roadways.
An article late Friday on the state-run Qatar News Agency announced the travel ban. It said 'owners of companies contractors and consulting engineers' would be banned from traveling abroad until the end of the probe.
A year's worth of rain on Wednesday deluged Doha's Hamad International Airport the home of Qatar Airways pouring through at least one part of the roof. The airport cost at least $15 billion to build.
Rainwater also flooded streets and shut down some stores in Doha.
Qatar has seen a boom in construction some derided as shoddy ahead of hosting the 2022 FIFA World Cup.
