KUWAIT CITY, March 20 (Xinhuanet) -- Qatari Assistant
Director for Security Brigadier Ahmad Al-Hayki refused on Sunday to accuse
Al-Qaeda of organizing Saturday's blast in Doha, the Qatar News Agency reported

planning theblast, especially that no specific party has claimed responsibility
for it yet.
