    Indians at great risk of UAE legal abuse after new enforcement agreement with UAE

    Indian nationals comprise close to 30% of the population of the United Arab Emirates, and Indian business people are by far the largest entrepreneurial group in the country. It is safe to say that there is not a single development, industrial, or commercial project in the UAE that is not made possible by Indian skills, supplies, and services. Being the largest, and most integral business community in the Emirates, expat Indians are naturally the most exposed to the systemic r

    2019 saw UAE & Gulf Abuses intensify - Detained in Dubai

    The risks posed by the United Arab Emirates, once only a problem for visitors and expats, have spread over the past year to endanger even people outside the country. 2019 has seen an intensification of the UAE’s Interpol abuse and the extra-jurisdictional application of the country’s vague and invasive Cybercrime laws. Meanwhile, the routine occurrence of false accusations, forced confessions, and wrongful detentions have continued at pace. Notable cases during 2019, designat

However, the court claimed that 62 cases remain that were not appealed by Andre’s former lawyer within the allowed time period; so the previous judgments in these cases still stand.

    Indian housewife wrongly jailed in UAE over a bounced cheque she never wrote

    Mary D’Souza has been in UAE detention for over 18 months In the UAE, guilt by association is a crime. Evidence of wrongdoing is often less important than simply being available to prosecute. Such is the case for 57 year old Indian national Mary Harold D’Souza, a middle-aged housewife in detention since January 2018 for crimes about which she had no knowledge. The case is a somewhat complicated shell game in which questionable middlemen made off with millions of dirhams and l

    Further anguish for British homeless shelter worker trapped in Dubai. Laleh Shahravesh was expecting to hear her fate today, only to be told by the Emirati judge that the case would be postponed, and no date given as to when. No relief for Laleh Shahravesh, or her daughter Paris, fraught with anxiety about a future without her mum. Instead, what was anticipated to be the day the court’s judgement would be issued became another painful delay in the case, as the complainant, Sa

    A Dubai court sentenced Briton Asa Hutchinson in absentia for being a witness to an alleged assault. Her testimony was dismissed, and she unable to defend herself in court.

    Detained over Etisalat Bills

    If you have opened an Etisalat subscription in the UAE as a resident expat, make sure you close your account before you leave the country. Over the past six months we have noted a trend in the Emirates of people being detained over past due Etisalat bills. Even if you are just transiting through the airport, you may be apprehended, charged, and imprisoned for up to several months. Overdue bills could previously simply be paid at the airport, but around six months ago, the gov

    UAE has dropped the charges against Scott Richards for supporting a charity on Facebook

    The UAE has dropped charges against Scott Richards for promoting a charity online! Great job everyone. Scott Richards, an Australian & British National was arrested, detained and charged under the UAE´s relatively new Cybercrime Laws for supporting a charity on social media that was not registered in the UAE. Richards' case attracted international broadcast media due to the absurd nature of the charges and the fact that half of Facebook users were potentially also in breach o

    Beware of money requests for lawyers from Dubai. Scams using a Dubai Jail format

    We have received five enquiries this year from people who have been requested to send funds to a lawyer because their partner has been arrested in Dubai. The fraud usually involves a few planned stages: 1. An intimate but remote relationship is established with the potential victim, men often posting as US Military personnel. We have seen both men and women being targeted; 2. There is a promise of marriage or intention to live together and a serious commitment made; 3. Th
