Justice for Billy Hood – Demonstration over footballer sentenced for CBD oil in Dubai #FreeBillyHood



Billy’s mother Breda has appealed to Sheikh Mohammed to have compassion on her boy, “Anyone who has ever known Billy has known he is a good boy and is the strongest advocate against drugs. He cares for his family, his friends and his sport. We have been torn apart because of his friend’s actions and we beg you, please help our boy”.

British courts have refused to extradite to the UAE based on ‘forced confessions, unfair trials, discrimination and the real risk of human rights violations and torture’ and yet, the UAE continues to profess their good treatment of prisoners and genuine legal process. “Forced confessions are almost automatic in the UAE to the point where the British courts have acknowledged its repeated practice”, said Radha Stirling, CEO of Detained in Dubai and Expert Witness. “This is especially the case in drugs related cases where police are incentivised to secure convictions at any cost”, she added. “There have been countless cases of British nationals being forced to confess in Arabic, even going back to my very first case of Cat Le-Huey. It’s a joke that the UAE pretends they offer translators”.
