Open letter to British Prime Minister : Cameron Should Press Rulers on Torture in UAE
David Cameron should challenge the deteriorating human rights record of the United Arab Emirates during a state visit by the country’s president to Britain next week, a coalition of seven international human rights organizations said today. Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan will begin a rare state visit to the United Kingdom on 29 April, but the high-profile trip comes at a time when abuses in the Gulf state are escalating, according to rights groups.
