Former Indian Navy Officer Re-Arrested in Qatar; Family Seeks Indian Government Intervention

Former Indian Navy officer Purnendu Tiwari has been re-arrested and jailed in Qatar following a separate financial investigation. His family has appealed to Prime Minister Modi and External Affairs Minister Jaishankar for intervention to secure his safe return. Tiwari was among eight former Indian Navy officers arrested in August 2022; seven were repatriated in February 2025. While diplomatic efforts continue, Tiwari remains in jail due to an ongoing legal matter, with his family expressing concern over limited contact.
