I Dubai er den amerikanske juristen Asim Ghafoor arrestert på flyplassen:
"UAE detains U.S. lawyer for Khashoggi on money laundering charges"

"July 17 (Reuters) - United Arab Emirates authorities have detained Asim Ghafoor, a U.S. citizen and civil rights attorney who previously served as a lawyer for slain journalist Jamal Khashoggi, said U.S.-based rights group DAWN of whose board Ghafoor is a member."

Dømt "in absentia" i UAE for hvitvasking av penger.

Det spørs om dette er den virkelige årsaken, gitt UEA's politiske regime.

EDIT:
Allerede 17. juli er Asim Ghafoor dømt til 3 års fengsel for hvitvasking av penger og skatteunndragelse, se Ny info:
