Checking in alcohol on transit

Hi, my friend will be travelling back to Kenya on Qatar airways, she will be departing from Singapore to Kenya, transiting at Doha with a 12 hours layover this weekend.

I got her 2 bottles of wine (750ml each) and she will have to check them in. Her luggages will be checked all the way to Kenya so I believe she is not going to retrieve her baggage at Doha and re-check in again for her Doha-Kenya flight.

Can I clarify whether does she need to declare anything at Doha customs, and does she need to surrender her alcohol in her checked-in suitcase on arrival at Doha, collect a receipt, and retrieve the bottles of wine back from the customs when she leaves Doha for her next flight?

Thank you!
