Over almost twenty years, we have helped almost thirty thousand victims of the UAE's draconian and chaotic system. The English Courts have refused to extradite to the Emirates based on the 'real risk of human rights abuses'. We’ve seen deaths in custody due to police brutality, rape victims jailed for “sex outside marriage”, domestic violence victims jailed for attempted suicide, frightened drone strike victims jailed for sending photos of their own apartment to loved ones.

According to Stirling, the most alarming development is the UAE’s willingness to extradite British nationals to third countries with significantly worse human-rights records, without examining evidence, assessing political motivation, or protecting against torture or coercion.
