\nJEDDAH: A member of the Qatari royal family has taken to Twitter to attack the government of Emir Sheikh Tamim, accusing Doha of foreign and domestic mismanagement and the harassment of other royal family members.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\nSheikh Fahad bin Abdullah Al-Thani claimed the domestic situation in Qatar has become unbearable, according to a translation by Al Arabiya of some of the points made in a Twitter question and answer session on the account carrying his name.<\/p>\n
\nHe said the boycott of Qatar by Saudi Arabia and other Arab countries over Doha\u2019s links to extremist groups meant that the internal problems were not just the rising prices but also \u201cthe complete isolation the regime has imposed on its people.\u201d<\/p>\n
\nHe said large numbers of the royal family had been banned from travelling.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cThe Al-Thani family cannot travel without prior permission. Anyone who did get approval from the regime was not allowed to travel especially after opposition within the family increased as they tried to save their country from this dark crisis.\u201d<\/p>\n
\nSheikh Fahad said the \u201ctragedies\u201d that had befallen his country\u00a0<\/p>\n
\nwere down to the former Emir\u2019s reliance on the radical cleric Youssef Al-Qaradawi and the Muslim Brotherhood.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cAlthough the people of Qatar have no links with this terrorist group,\u201d he said.\u00a0<\/p>\n
