that was my initial reaction, like "ok this would not stand at any court". then I realized that it probably affects employees who live and are citizens of Qatar or similar nations in which 1. I have no idea about their legal system 2. and the only idea I have from what I see in the news etc. about worker rights etc. is not the best
Isn’t it Qatar where you go to jail if you fail to pay your debts? Or maybe it’s only Saudi Arabia, I can’t remember. And this was the reason why the city was apparently littered with perfectly good but abandoned Ferrari and lamborghini cars.
I wouldn't pay anything if I were this guy.

He has the advantage of holding the balance in his account, and this matter doesn't stick in front of any court. So good luck to QAW to see the color of this money.

I guess this will be won, if at all, in the court of popular opinion
