Lawsuit: Qatari Sheikh Tried to Force His American Security Personnel To Murder Two People

Alleged, obviously.

An Arab sheikh tried to enlist his American security staffer to murder two people and ordered him to hold another American captive, according to a new lawsuit filed in federal court.

A second plaintiff in the lawsuit makes similar allegations, saying he served as the sheikh's around-the-clock medic to monitor his vitals during 36-hour long benders and that he was held captive in a compound, threatened with a gun and ultimately jumped from an 18-foot wall to escape.


Sheikh Khalid Bin Hamad Bin Khalifa Al Thani, the brother of the ruler of the oil-rich nation of Qatar, is the target of the lawsuit, which was filed July 23 in a Florida federal court and has not been previously reported.

The security guard is Matthew Pittard, a Florida man. The medic is Matthew Allende, a California man. Both worked for Khalid in Beverly Hills and also traveled with him regularly to Qatar and London.

"During his employment, Pittard was solicited by Defendant Khalid for the murder of two individuals. In approximately late September of 2017 and November of 2017, in Los Angeles, California, Defendant Khalid asked Pittard to murder a male and a female who Defendant Khalid viewed as threats to his social reputation and personal security. Pittard refused to execute these unlawful requests," the suit says.

"From approximately July 7-10, 2018, Defendant Khalid and his private Qatari security staff held an American citizen against the American citizen's will on at least two occasions in one of Defendant Khalid's personal residences," the suit continues. "At Defendant Khalid's request, the American citizen was arrested and jailed at the Onaiza Police Station in Doha, Qatar. Pittard and the United States Embassy came to the aide of the American citizen, and helped the American citizen reach a point of safety, and eventually safely depart from the country."

"[U]pon learning that Pittard had assisted in securing the American citizen's safety," Khalid said Pittard would "pay the price," according to the lawsuit. "Defendant Khalid directly told Pittard that he would kill him, bury his body in the desert, and kill Pittard's family."

Pittard was held against his will, his electronics and personal belongings were taken, and he was fired, the lawsuit says. Khalid brandished a Glock 26 firearm while forcing Pittard "to execute new employment documents," the lawsuit says.

Quick, get Rick Wilson!

Oh wait, Rick Wilson is busy accusing Republicans of "winking" at "white supremacy."
