A Pakistani cabinet minister says Islamabad will continue to import liquefied natural gas (LNG) from Qatar under a 15-year agreement, despite the severing of diplomatic ties with Qatar by Saudi Arabia and some other countries.

It said hackers installed a file and then published a fake news item attributed to Qatar's emir, Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, just after midnight May 24.

SINGAPORE — A private-hire driver took advantage of a drunk passenger after she fell asleep in his car by pulling her skirt up and recording images of her body, which he then sent to his friends. Mohammad Noorandy Wahid then raped the 31-year-old woman at a deserted spot, and bragged to one of the friends he was «lucky» she had been unconscious. On May 17, the 39-year-old, who is married, was sentenced to 11 years' jail and nine strokes of the cane after he pleaded guilty to one charge of rape and one charge of distributing voyeuristic images. The offences were committed in the early hours of Feb 27, 2020. Another seven charges were taken into consideration during sentencing. At the time, Noorandy was a delivery driver who rented a Mercedes-Benz S300L to work as private-hire driver with ride-hailing company Ryde at night. Deputy Public Prosecutor Tan Pei Wei told the High Court that Noorandy occasionally drove the woman and her friends from club to club. He became acquainted with her in December 2019 after he approached her and her friends who were waiting outside a club for a taxi.
