    Story

    My dad was arrested as he was boarding a connecting flight to Nairobi in Dubai (Traveling from Guinea to Somalia for work). He has been held in a cell since Thursday morning with other men and only been given bread and water. To everyone else knowledge he has been missing since Thursday, as he was allowed to send an email where he explained he was being released and go continue on his journey; however after the email was sent they changed their mind and locked him back up, not allowing him any contact with anyone and we have all been worried sick. This morning I got a phone call at 5:30am and it was my dad, I almost cried with relief. He still isn't being told why he was arrested, (he was boarding his flight and just waiting in line not doing anything) but has been taking to court house and told to pay 2000AED and he can go. 2000AED works out to be £410. This isn't the kind of money my family has and I am so desperate for him not to be put back in cell for no reason, I plead with you to help. I will pay you all back every penny, when I can. Please help me and my family get my innocent dad out of this horrid place. Thank you all so much for reading, you have no idea how much it means to us all. Thank you!

      On behalf of myself and my family, I would like to thank everyone for their help. I will message you all to get your bank details as soon as we can pay you back. We have managed to gather the rest of the funds through some of my mums very generous friends like all of you. Thank you so much again, you have no idea how much this means to us all. Hopefully he will be set free tomorrow and we will have more information to what has happened. To the people who have donated anonymously if you could send me a message, so I know how to pay you back.

      Good luck, can't believe they can do this. Have you contacted amnesty international? I wonder if they can help. Hope you get all the money together. Alex xx
