(ANSA) - ROME, FEB 19 - The United Nations human rights office asks the Emirates for proof that Princess Latifa, daughter of the Emir of Dubai Mohammed bin Rashid AlMaktoum, is alive.
The BBC reports.
It is the latest development in chronological order in the story denounced by the same Princess Latifa who, in a video made to arrive illegally at the BBC, launched her cry for help revealing the conditions in which her father-master, as well as one of the richest men on the planet, described as a real imprisonment.
Particularly since, in 2018, the princess had tried to escape.
The UN contacted David Haigh of the 'Free Latifa' campaign asking to have access to the video, in which, among other things, Latifa claims to fear for his life.
"We have expressed our concerns about the situation in light of the disturbing video evidence that emerged this week," said LizThrossell, spokesman for the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, "and asked for proof that he is alive."
