Sheikha Shamsa Al Maktoum has attempted suicide three times while locked away from the world, according to a woman who has worked with Dubai's royals. As far as the IOPC [Independent Office for Last week’s ruling also detailed two unsuccessful attempts by Latifa to flee the Downing Street has insisted that the Foreign Office had no role in the investigation into Shamsa’s abduction or its outcome.But the Foreign Office has confirmed that it holds information relevant to the investigation, which it refused to disclose to the high court, claiming that it would harm the UK’s relationship with the UAE.“Given the seriousness of the allegations concerning Cambridgeshire police’s due diligence during the investigation into Princess Shamsa’s disappearance, a self-referral to the IOPC is the right course of action,” said Kate Allen, Amnesty International UK’s director.“It’s of paramount importance that public confidence in the police isn’t undermined by cases like this, not least when there are claims of political interference at the highest levels.”Christine Jardine, the Liberal Democrats’ home affairs spokesperson, said: “The government must now establish an independent inquiry into what role the Foreign Office played in preventing that investigation going ahead.

Sheikha Latifa bint Mohammed al-Maktoum, 35, is Shamsa’s younger sister. It may be mentioned here that, Sheikha Latifa Al Maktoum had also been drugged on a regular basis. A keen skydiver, “That used to give her a great sense of freedom,” said Jauhiainen.
Princess Shamsa hasn't been seen in … But the temporary disappearance of Sheikha Shamsa al-Maktoum, now 37, daughter of one of the Arab world’s richest leaders, has come full circle and into the glare of publicity. Shamsa Bint Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum Princess Shamsa was born on 15 August 1981 and is one of Princess Latifa’s full sisters and a member of the Dubai royal family. She looked very, very unwell.“The second time I saw her was at (another) sister’s wedding in 2016. Shamsa, 37, is the daughter of Dubai's billionaire ruler Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, whose wife, Princess Haya bint Hussein, is in Britain after allegedly fleeing him. The force has subsequently said it did not have sufficient evidence to proceed, and the investigation lapsed.David Haigh, a human rights lawyer, shared confidential information with Cambridgeshire police relating to the two princesses in 2018 and 2019 as he sought to have the investigation into Shamsa’s abduction reopened.During his meetings with detectives, Haigh said a female detective had told him that Shamsa had phoned in 2017 requesting the force’s help.Cambridgeshire police confirmed that it conducted a further review of the original investigation in 2017, only to again conclude that there was insufficient evidence for further action.A spokeswoman for the force said: “As with any crime it is inappropriate for us to make any comment in relation to specific contact or accounts from any victim. "The next time I was tortured it was for five hours and I was pulled from the bed, driven to another location in the palace and they tortured me.”Last month, a cousin claimed Shamsa had written a letter saying she wanted to run away just months before she vanished.Ms Jauhiainen and Latifa became friends and took up skydiving together.As they grew closer, Latifa began to reveal how she had been treated horribly by her family, claiming she had spent more than three years in jail and been beaten after she failed to escape in Dubai in 2002 when she was 16, Ms Jauhiainen claims.Ms Jauhiainen tried to help Latifa escape in March 2018 when they drove across the border to Oman, travelled almost 25 miles by jet ski and inflatable boat to former French navy officer Herve Jaubert's yacht in international waters.Latifa, 33, had tried to escape on the yacht but was allegedly recaptured by Emirati and Indian soldiers who stormed the vessel as it approached the coast of Goa, India.She claimed in a video last year that she and her older sister had been held prisoner after trying to escape years earlier.Ms Jauhiainen spent two weeks in jail in Dubai and has since launched the Free Latifa campaign.Earlier this week, Princess Haya, the estranged wife of Sheikh Mohammed, asked a UK court for a forced marriage protection order.Last month, Haya, 45, was reported to be in hiding in London and was said to be in fear of her life.She has asked for wardship of her children, who left the UAE with her, and as a forced marriage protection order and a non-molestation order.The full hearing of the dispute will be heard in London on November 11.When you subscribe we will use the information you provide to send you these newsletters.
