A BBC journalist has apparently been jailed for two nights in Qatar for taking photographs and attempting to gather information on the conditions of migrant workers in the country ahead of the 2022 World Cup finals.

Reporting from Doha, Mark Lobel claims to have been invited to the country by the Prime Minister's office, who were apparently keen to show off new accommodation for the low-paid workers in the country.

Lobel says he and his accompanying crew were detained for a lengthy period and subject to "hostile" questioning after being the subjects of two days of surveillance prior to their arrests.

In response, the Qatar government said the detentions were made for trespass and breaking Qatari laws.
