​After been released from custody in Dubai I had no hope of getting home at all after speaking with Radha she agreed to take on my case. She and her team didn’t give up till I was free to return home. I would advise anyone who is in need of help in the UAE speak with Radha. Thanks detained in Dubai.

​I would like to express my sincere gratitude to all at Detained in Dubai for their invaluable assistance during the time I was arrested in Ukraine, imprisoned for 43 days in  deplorable conditions and not allowed to leave Ukraine for over 14 months. Detained in Dubai worked relentlessly to get the illegal Interpol Red notice removed. This eventually resulted in me being able to travel and return to the UK. I am greatly indebted to them.

If it wasn't for Radha "Detained in Dubai" to pick up my fiance's story being detained in Dubai and write about it - I wouldn't have had the hope and courage today to keep continually fighting for his safe return home to England from the UAE.

 

Thank you "Detained in Dubai" for your consistent nonjudgmental strength and support, in seeing things through until freedom for the vulnerable and mistreated is accomplished - with you Radha being a great role model for inspiration to others "in never giving up until justice is done"

 

Thank you and forever grateful
