Law No. (3) of 2004 on Combating Terrorism
Issued by Emir Hamad Bin Khalifa Al Thani, this Qatari statute establishes a comprehensive legal framework defining terrorist crimes and mandates enhanced penalties, including life imprisonment and the death penalty. The law criminalizes founding or joining terrorist groups, providing financial or material support, collaborating with foreign organizations, and training personnel for terrorist acts. It grants the Public Prosecutor broad investigative authorities to extend precautionary detention, impound communications and property, and freeze assets while ensuring compliance with international counter-terrorism treaties.
