British grandfather Albert Douglas was beaten by police only one year ago, suffering serious head injuries and broken bones. FCDO failure in Albert Douglas case
Grandfather Albert Douglas has been held as an economic hostage in Dubai. He has been beaten, tortured and denied his medication, but the FCDO says “torture in itself is not grounds for a clemency application”. The UK claimed Albert was their “top diplomatic priority” but the frail grandfather who is currently living in prison with broken bones has seen no change in his situation. “Albert reported that he is currently detained with a celmate who alleges to have directly witnessed Lee’s death. In a harrowing phone call, Albert relays the conversation. “Such drastic and deadly abuse should not be tolerated by the UAE’s allies, by businesses and by celebrities. I sincerely pray that the outcome of this Inquest is determinative and that the UAE is held to account, initiates urgent reform and compensates the victim’s family. Nobody is safe until this happens”. After Albert Douglas was proven to have been beaten , the British government urged the UAE to address the allegations. Dubai arranged a medical panel to review his injuries but that was seemingly to appease the British government for a moment in time. The board confirmed Albert had been beaten and sustained injuries but did not act further . Albert’s son Wolfgang Douglas has desperately been campaigning for the British government to intervene, “We have called on everyone to get involved. My father should have been released the moment it was revealed that he had been beaten to the point of broken bones. The UAE has no right to hold him. He hasn’t committed any crime and we fear every day that he will be killed. As a family, we have so much sympathy for Lee. Every single detainee in Dubai’s jail wants justice for him”.
