Abduction, forced return, torture and a campaign of intimidation. On Thursday the damning allegations made against the billionaire ruler of Dubai, Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al-Maktoum, by his former wife, Princess Haya Bint Al-Hussain, became established fact, published in a series of judgements by the High Court in London.

Dubai's Sheikh Mohammed abducted daughters and threatened wife - UK court

OMG....peeps rhis is unbelievable. A head of state has been accused and shown to be guilty, in a court of law, to have abducted and tortured his daughters (one ON British soil), and relaying death threats to his missus.

This is shocking. He owns an arse load....a Rosey Odonnel ass load, of property in the UK. He is a big horse dude and owns several stables....he is a big pal of the queen.

It is sad to see that these people who have everything even have the need to do this kinda stuff.

a reply to: lakenheath24

Rumour says Prince Charles hid Haya pretty well and trickled down gossip to the Sheik that all of London was being highly surveilled by FBI, MI5, etc because of Epstein/Andrew and Brexit and not to chance trying to grab her. Then Charles hooked Haya up with his attorney.

Yikes.

Why the surprise??? /SMH.......

He is a very rich man and the ruler of a country where Men OWN women

Women in those countries have *less rights than cattle*

Meh.......

Women are to be subjugated. Any argument against that is Islamophobic and racist.

His beliefs are widely held and are considered ‘moderate’ and ‘normal’.
His actions may be slightly more extreme than some but the vast majority of his peers would openly agree with his decision to place his daughters under house arrest.

As for the torture? Well, they brought shame to the family and we all know what mohammed says about that.

“He’s just a crazy dictator psychopath, it’s got nothing to do with his belief and his religion”.

Yes yes, you’re so right. How silly of me.

Allegedly he is one of the more 'enlightened' of the Middle East rulers.

Don't think we've heard the last of this, but no amount of spin can alter the fact that this is totally unacceptable.

Could possibly have a serious impact on UK horse racing.

a reply to: lakenheath24

Very believable in fact, I would argue.

a reply to: sputniksteve

Absolute power absolutely corrupts.

He did absolutely nothing wrong, according to sharia law.

I thought the UK was moving towards a two tiered justice system to accommodate muslims and sharia.

AND...its his 7th wife. I like the part where a loaded gun was placed on her pillow.

Now that is an excellent rumor. You csn bet Handy Andy is involved too. This story is BIG, yet wasnt on the BBC news.

Are you a muslim man? If so, you get special treatment.

Now a report, Sharia Law in Britain: A Threat to One Law for All and Equal Rights, reveals the adverse effect of sharia courts on family law. Under sharia's civil code, a woman's testimony is worth half of a man's. A man can divorce his wife by repudiation, whereas a woman must give justifications, some of which are difficult to prove. Child custody reverts to the father at a preset age; women who remarry lose custody of their children even before then; and sons inherit twice the share of daughters.

There has been much controversy about Muslim arbitration tribunals, which have attracted attention because they operate as tribunals under the Arbitration Act, making their rulings binding in UK law

Like I said in my earlier post within Muslim/Sharia law there is no place for women

they are owned by men from the cradle to the grave by fathers, brothers.

husbands, sons......... they are none people, lower than an animal, and in this case

probably his 'race horses' have a higher priority.


There is NO room in society for two laws especially when they have opposing views

it should be a case of when in Rome ..... and if you don't like it return to where

you came from!

I thought the UK was moving towards a two tiered justice system to accommodate muslims and sharia.

And you thought wrong....as has been explained time and time again here on ATS but I guess some people just don't want to accept the truth if it doesn't quite fit in with their pre-conceived take on things.

Not sure this applies to a Head of State ffs. That would be like Johnson ordering MI-5 to abduct his ex somewhere.

From todays paper...... havent been able to find it on line so no links.

*Blair government shut down police probe into Dubai Princess kidnap*

Demands were growing last night for a probe into allegations that
Tony Blair's labour government shut down a major police investigation
into the billionaire ruler of Dubai.
It comes after a high court ruled that Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al
Maktoum orchestrated the kidnap of two of his daughters one from the
streets of Cambridge in the year 2000.
The Princess then 19 said that armed bodyguards grabbed her, injected
her with sedatives, and took her to Dubai where she was tortured, now
38, she has not been seen in public since.
Cambridgeshire police launched a probe, but it was allegedly shut down
after interference from the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO)
under the then foreign secretary Robin Cook - as a *diplomatic favour*

Alec Shelbrooke the conservative party vice chairman, last night
accused Blair of making 'backroom deals' with the Sheikh. A government
spokesman said "the FCO had no role in the investigation or the outcome.
The foreign secretary is looking into the court ruling." Cambridgeshire
Constabulary said it will" review aspects of the case"though it remains
offically closed.

MP Nickie Aiken who sits on the Commons Women and Equalities
Committee, said the police investigation must be reopened, she said "this
case clearly demonstrates that no matter what a woman's background,
education or status domestic abuse does not discriminate."

Sir Andrew McFarlane the most senior family judge in England and Wales
said the FCO refused to disclose information about the inquiry citing 'the
national interest.'

So the teflon Sheikh has already got away with it thanks to teflon Tony Blair.

Seems as long as you've got money you're untouchable.....wonder what Blair's

pay day came to?

a reply to: eletheia

I'm not trying to make excuses for Sheikh Mohammed's deplorable behaviour or Tony Blair's possible duplicity but don't you think any investigation into Bliar and his governments actions won't be politically motivated?

And I don't doubt for one minute that there will be at least as many skeletons in the Tory Party's cupboard.

I'm all for transparency and accountability but its just as important that there's consistency.
