The Australian Government has registered "serious concerns" with Qatar after women on board a flight from Doha to Sydney were subjected to an invasive internal examination.
Key points:
- Staff at Hamad International Airport reportedly found a human foetus in a terminal bathroom
- It is alleged they detained and forced women on a Sydney-bound flight to undergo an invasive examination on the tarmac
- DFAT says it has raised the issue with Qatar
Seven News reports that airline staff at Hamad International Airport in Doha discovered a human foetus in a terminal bathroom earlier this month.
Airline staff then reportedly took matters into their own hands.
Women on board a flight that was bound for Sydney, including 13 Australians, were detained and forced to undergo an examination in an ambulance parked on the tarmac.
According to the report, the women had their genitals invasively examined without consent and were not told why.
The Australian Government says it is aware of what it has described as "concerning reports".
A spokesman for the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade said it had raised the incident with Qatar.
"We have formally registered our serious concerns regarding the incident with Qatari authorities and have been assured that detailed and transparent information on the event will be provided soon," he said.
