I, unlike S&O, actually feel sorry for this guy. He was arrested on the claim that he embezzled $150 million, which was later reduced to $2.2 million and finally revised to $600K. Anyone who has worked for the Dubai World group of companies will tell you - without reservation and to everyone's c...
Well there you go - a perfect example of the standard of "structural engineers" in Dubai !!!! I suggest that the Dubai Government pays S&O $50,000 per month to stand in front of the "slightly" damaged area to monitor the repair :) and alert us of any future problems (they wil...

How dare you bring your negativity on this forum. Nakheel has tonnes of cash everything is tickety boo - Manal Shaheen has been re-employed, Sultan bin Sulayem really DOES have his passport and Chris O'Donnell does not have a care in the world - I even hear that the traditional 87% salary increase f...

Just what is your malfunction Ekka ? This information has been with the defendants lawyers all along, not something that they pulled out of a hat "last night". Long story short - Sunland realised too late the Lemon that they were buying into and sought to use laws from the Dark Ages as emp...

TJ, you are absolutely correct, in the context of a fully developed and mature legal system, the plaintiff is required by law to prove "beyond a reasonable doubt" the charge and to provide evidence of the fact; however, therein lies the problem ......... I submit by way of example; the Chi...

And it has nothing to do with Dubai & everything to do with build standards. It just so happens that acceptable standards in Dubai are at best questionable and at worst non-existant. To go back to the car analogy - do you think that an insurance company would insure a cut'n shut car. No of cours...
