Overturn the draconian prison sentence handed to British citizen Jonathan Nash.
Jonathan Nash has been sentenced to 37 years in a Qatari prison. His crime? Nothing more than a bounced cheque. In line with Qatar’s judiciary system (or lack of), he has not been given any opportunity to defend himself. No day in court and no opportunity to give his version of events.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
We can't accept your petition because the UK Government or Parliament cannot overturn a prison sentence passed by another country's courts.
You could start a new petitions asking the UK Government to raise the case with the Qatari Government if that is something you would like to see happen.
