What to do if your relative is arrested in Dubai
My brother arrived at Dubai airport on 05/04/2017. Dubai Immigration authorities detained him upon arrival and sent him to Naif Police Station.
On April 6, 2017, a relative went to Naif Police Station, they kept his passport as a guarantor without providing any information.
Furthermore, I went today to the police station after arriving from Pakistan and tried to meet my brother, however, I was not allowed to meet him. When I inquired about the detention reason, a traffic warden from the police office gave me this case number 2014/4286 outlining it as a detention reason.
It is noteworthy to mention that he was already interrogated briefly by the authorities in this case and was let go without detention. During the course of three years (2014-2017), he has traveled to Dubai on visit visa 4-5 times.
We are seeking help in the above case as we went to Dubai Courts and they sent us to Dubai Public Prosecution but no help.
Dear SIr/ Madam,
With regard to your question, I very much understand your concerns and would be able to help your brother to handle this case. However, we will need to get a brief detail of the matter and a Power of Attorney to enable us to proceed.
Therefore, we would like to arrange a meeting to discuss the way of taking this matter forward.
