The court had heard how Mr al Boom purchased 53 luxury vehicles, including Bentleys, for himself and his managers. It was also revealed that he purchased a luxury yacht for himself as well as two other boats, one of which was used for specifically parties and receptions.

Among other charges of decadent spending, Mr al Boom was accused by prosecutors of spending millions in donations to football clubs and the purchase of special number plates.

uaekid, you have lost the plot again, which isn't unusual.

I give the same criticism to any rich folk who display obscenely grand shows of wealth. You are the one who assigns an Arab bias to me, because that's how you roll.

Middle Eastern businessmen arrested after crashing £180,000 Lamborghini in London square

Two Middle Eastern businessmen were arrested after a £180,000 supercar spun out of control crashing into four vehicles, police said today.

Abdulla Saeed Khalfan Al-Dhaheri, 28, and Sultan Khalifa Al-Muhairbi, 35, both from the United Arab Emirates, were held after the smash in Lowndes Square in Knightsbridge, central London, where residents have complained about boy racers disturbing the peace at night.

Lowndes Square is home to some of London's wealthiest residents, among them Chelsea football club owner Roman Abramovich.

According to London's Evening Standard, the car - a new £180,000 Lamborghini with only 250 miles on the clock - was on loan from the Italian carmaker to a client.

No one was injured in the crash which happened in the early hours of July 25.

The two men appeared at Isleworth Crown Court on Tuesday last week. Al-Muhairbi was charged with dangerous driving and driving with no insurance and Al-Dhaheri was charged with perverting the course of justice.

The men, who are due to appear in court again on October 12, are said to have walked away from the pile-up, telling a passerby: 'It's all right, we'll pay for the damage.'

A parked BMW was reportedly flipped over by the force of the impact.

Property company director Siraj Dadabohy, 45, who lives in Lowndes Square, said: 'It's ing the way guys come here with blaring music and revving their engines.'

His neighbour Louise Shaw, 37, said: 'They all seem to think they're Lewis Hamilton and don't give any consideration for how much noise they're making.'

Most of the so-called billionaire blingmobiles have Middle Eastern number plates and are flown in for the summer.

I wonder how the conversation with the Policeman went ?


"But Yani you know who my father is, here take this money and call him - he fix everything"

"Why you are putting these bracelets on my arms, you think I am Pakistani ?"

"Open the door to this wagon - I will make complaint to your ruler - I make case on yoooooooooooo"

Al Dhaheri charged with perverting the course of justice - yeah ok, like he does not have a new passport by now in the name of Mohammed bin Dhabi and a Eurostar ticket for Paris ...... BYE - don't come back !

Erm, no they don't have the right in the UK.

We have laws that apply to everyone, regardless of race, creed, colour or size of their bank account. As for respect, maybe the perpetrators should have shown more respect to the laws of the country where they are before they decided to flaunt their wealth.

Our economy is crashed, with or without their assistance and hindrance.

And in Dubai, lots of Britts are blamed for Dubai economy crashing, does this give them also more rights to break UK laws

Are you sure you've been in the UAE for several years!!!???

See my comment in the " Briton stripping in the mall" thread!!!

Cheers!

Come on, it is clear that Blackburnrovers was just stirring the pot.

Happens every year, must be a slow news week. Rich as they are all they do is stay in Knightsbridge (pretty yet boring area), drop thousands in casinos on the Edgeware road (slightly less glamourous than Monte Carlo) and think they are "bling" taking table service in laughable, tourist traps like China Whites.

Money can buy you a lot but evidently it can't be taste or even a clue.

What??? They can do what they want when in the UAE were the law doesn't, in most cases, apply to them. These are the very people who probably b*tch about expats not respecting UAE law.

Lets throw them in jail, take away all their rights, not give them access to a lawyer or communication with their families, parade them in front of a judge, find them guilty, fine them a million pounds, then deport them immediately.

Same as you get here for a peck on the cheek.
