American detained in Dubai calls for Nevada Senator assistance

"We have contacted the US Consular service in Dubai to request their assistance, as well as Peter’s Senators and Congressional representatives in Las Vegas, Nevada. The US government needs to act to protect their citizens who are unfairly detained abroad, particularly in the UAE. We have just sold $23 billion worth of weapons to a nation who has no qualms about extrajudicial criminality. The UAE was reported just last week to have hacked US citizens, including myself, legal opponents and human rights critics. We have serious assaults against US citizens, abduction of US citizens, and the attack of a US flagged yacht at sea. It’s time the United States took these offences seriously. We have just reported a range of offences to the #FBI, following a Daily Beast investigative report.

“The UAE’s willingness to violate international treaties, laws and standards has unfortunately been encouraged over the past decade. Serious Iran sanction violations, human trafficking and arms smuggling reports were submitted in DC to the House and Senate, as well as to the State Department of then Secretary Hillary Clinton, but the UAE’s bank book and lobbying presence managed to suppress the wrongdoing. That suppression has given the green light to the UAE to act criminally and recklessly with an emboldened sense of impunity.”

Stirling has assisted a number of Americans faces persecution in #Dubai. Melissa McBurnie was falsely accused of Cybercrime violations by her Egyptian stalker. David Oliver was held for small bank debts after he suffered a stroke. Najib Khoury and Oussama El Omari were both wrongfully placed on Interpol, while Hervé Jaubert was abducted from international waters and brought to the UAE to be interrogated. “There is a disturbing pattern”, added Stirling, who founded the organisation in 2008 and who has helped in more than 15,000 cases of injustice.
