The Huangs not guilty according to Qatari court

The parents of Gloria -a little child who was found dead in her room after four days of not eating were acquitted from the charges of starving their child   to death .
 The parents were aware of the eating disorder she had had but never took her to any doctor in Qatar .They knew that she was hungry still they locked her in her bedroom for nights because of her garbage eating habit .( Why did not they lock the garbage  bin rather ?)

Their  case  shared  the public opinion  very much . Some people prefer to see them as totally innocent people who were the victim of a  bad bad  Middle Eastern justice  system which might have been biased towards the American couple with Chinese origin .

Others see their  case as a pure case of parental negligence  - a case which would get harsh punishments  in their own country .
Gloria was an adopted little girl from Ghana . She had been suffering from an infection as well which was not treated either .Her American parents had all the means to provide her the best medical care possible . But they did not !After all the procedures of higher and lower courts it is still not clear why they  failed to take her to one clinic in Qatar !
