US citizen detained in UAE
Budrigannews.com – On Sunday, her fiance said that an Egyptian citizen and an American citizen detained on vacation in the UAE is worried that he will be extradited to Egypt because of criticism of the country’s authorities before the COP27 climate conference.
A spokesman for the UAE confirmed to Reuters on Thursday that the Arab Emirates, Egypt’s close allies, the UAE, arrested Sherif Osman, who lives in the United States, on December 6 at the request of the Arab League organization, which will coordinate security and law enforcement management issues.
Without specifying to which country and to which request a specific application was sent, the official noted that the Emirati authorities are working to obtain “the required legal documentation necessary for the consideration of the case for the decision to make a decision on the decision to make a decision on the decision to make a decision on the decision to make a decision on the decision to make a decision on that they detained him in a restaurant in Dubai where she was with him.
The State Prosecutor informed her that Egypt had approached him on charges like “negative statements against State institutions.” For the first time, the Egyptian authorities did not consider the incident in the Wall Street Journal, which did not immediately respond to Reuters requests for comment.
A representative of the US State Department on Thursday said that the countries are “closely monitoring his affairs and providing appropriate support to the consulate,” and it is also known that Osman was arrested in Dubai. “On October 31, a video was posted on YouTube that condemns Egyptian President Abdel-Fattah Al-Sisi, and calls for a quiet fight in Egypt (November 11) when President Joe Biden arrived at the COP27 meeting in Sharm El Sheikh.”
Wirth, an American from Finland, told Reuters: “He told me says he treats him well… but we are all very worried and traumatized.” She said she talked to him on Sunday. She said: “I would like to turn to diplomatic intervention, because… I can’t believe he would have gotten a fair trial in Egypt.” Osman’s fiancee said that she went to the UAE with him to meet Dubai’s sister, as well as her mother, who was going to Egypt with him.
According to Witta, Osman could only sign the power of attorney on Wednesday after he left Dubai on December 16 to return to the United States. In the case of detention, the UAE representative said that the country “strictly complies with all international standards,” including regular access to the consular area and legal advice.
