Qatar has condemned in the strongest terms the murder of British parliamentarian and Chairman of the Qatar All-Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) Sir David Amess, describing the stabbing as a “horrific crime and a clear violation of human rights”.
David Amess, 69, was fatally stabbed at about noon on Friday while meeting with constituents in Leigh-on-Sea, a town about 62 kilometres east of London. The Conservative lawmaker had been a member of Parliament for 38 years.
