Extradited from Ukraine to Belgium - When crypto entrepreneurs are targeted.

Radha Stirling talks with Simon Tadros, a tech entrepreneur who was extradited from Ukraine to Belgium, a country he had never even been to.

Simon tells a story of what can happen to savvy entrepreneurs when law enforcement gets it wrong.  Interpol and extradition specialist, Radha Stirling, has represented a number of crypto entrepreneurs who have been wrongfully targeted by law enforcement and swept up in a new, worrying trend towards universal jurisdiction.

“Countries are trying to extradite entrepreneurs who have never even visited the requesting country.  It’s dangerous and open to abuse.  There is significant pressure on law enforcement to crackdown on crypto users and entrepreneurs and they are misusing Interpol and the extradition process to export their authority internationally.

“We can not allow a precedent to be set whereby any country can, without evidence, have someone extradited to their country, especially those who have never even been there.  Imagine if Saudi or China began requesting the same?”

Simon Tadros was detained in Ukraine, extradited to Belgium to face unfair and unevidenced allegations.  He was ultimately released which exemplifies how law enforcement and universal jurisdiction are a great threat to the safety of individuals, putting them at risk of egregious human rights violations.

“What Simon has been through is disgraceful.  He will not be compensated for the wrongful extradition, for the damage to his reputation, business and the personal toll it has taken on him and his family.”

Stirling successfully helped British national, Christopher Emms, defend extradition from Saudi Arabia to the US and has appealed to Interpol to remove the Red Notice issued by the US in violation of Interpol’s rules.

“I hope Simon’s case acts as a warning to Western law enforcement agencies who are haphazardly extraditing targets and ruining their lives, only to realise there is no genuine case”.

Gulf in Justice host, Radha Stirling, interviews Mr Zulfi Bujhari, special advisor to Prime Minister Imran Khan, the “most popular PM in Pakistan’s history”.

Mr Bujhari explains what led to the ousting and subsequent persecution of PM Khan and his entire party, their families and allies.

Mr Buhhari fought to have a wrongful Interpol Red Notice against him removed.  He hopes that the higher legal courts in Pakistan will ultimately exonerate Mr Khan of the “falsified” legal cases against him in what is clearly a shocking example of the weaponization of a legal system against their political opponent, the democratically elected Imran Khan.

Bujhari says ousting the most popular Prime Minister has set the country back decades, and the international community and allies could have done more to influence justice and fairness in his country.

Apprentice star Selina Waterman-Smith's Dubai nightmare - Selina was gang raped in Dubai and has been suffering at the hands of a conman

This week, the International Criminal Police Organization (Interpol) removed the name of a British entrepreneur from its Red Notice database, after a successful appeal was launched by IPEX Reform against his wrongful listing.Radha Stirling, founder and CEO of IPEX Reform and Detained in Dubai, said in a statement about the case, “Our client’s removal from Interpol is a great relief for him and his family after the almost decade-long ordeal they suffered because of corruption in Qatar.

“At this point, UK citizens who lose their money in the Dubai property market could not be blamed for holding British media outlets accountable, ethically if not legally,” says an exasperated Radha Stirling, founder and CEO of Detained in Dubai. She is reacting to the latest article in the UK press touting the UAE as a smart place to invest. “It is truly appalling that these promotional stories never include information about the huge risks involved in Dubai real estate, not to mention the overall dangers foreign nationals face in the UAE.

We can applaud the Iran-Saudi agreement as an historic turning point in the region, but what we will be hailing, if we are being honest, is the retreat of Western influence in the Middle East, and that is more ominous than inspiring. https://www.detainedindubai.org/post/iran-saudi-arabia-deal-a-dangerous-sign-of-western-retreat-by-radha-stirling

“My Iraq Prison Hell” - Brian Glendinning talks to Radha Stirling

Radha Stirling talks to French mother Maud Quinault whose son was abducted by his father and unlawfully removed to Oman, despite the parents having a French joint custody order.  Oman is not a signatory to the Hague Convention against   Maud says "My name is Maud Quinault, my son and I are french, he is 5 years old and has been abducted by his father in Oman, middle-east. While the father was supposed to take fahad-Louis, our son to Disney land in Paris as we had a shared custody in France, he rented a car to drive to Madrid where the Omani ambassador issued a laissé passé allowing him to fly to Oman from Madrid, against the french court order.  My baby boy has been teared apart from his mother, unlawfully and used as a tool by his father to seek revenge and to destroy me because I have decided a few years back to put an end to my husband’s daily physical and verbal abuse, so I left him.  This is a clear breech of human rights but parental abduction is legal in Oman.  I am indeed devastated and my pain is indescribable. My heart is shattered and I feel soulless.  My baby boy and I have been separated since the 17th of April 2022, more than 4 months.  the father is refusing to give me any information about Fahad-Louis, when he his sick for example or even in which school he enrolled him.  I am asking for financial help as the legal fees are very costly and my fight will intensify as September approaches..  Thank you so much for your constant support, I am forever grateful".
