Marcus Lee opens fire on Matt Joyce after five years trapped in Dubai

Marcus Lee opens fire on Matt Joyce after five years trapped in Dubai:



"Marcus Lee, one of the Australian property executives trapped in Dubai for almost five years, has described jailhouse tensions with his fellow countryman and prisoner Matt Joyce, including the day that Mr Joyce confronted him in jail and said: “The only reason I’m not going to beat the shit out of you is that I don’t want another case against me.”



Mr Joyce was Mr Lee's boss on a Dubai Waterfront development that led to both of them landing in prison, accused of a plot to deceive the Australian developer Sunland into paying $14 million too much for a plot of land. Both men were exonerated after intense diplomatic pressure after nine months in jail and more than four more years under house arrest on fraud charges.



Mr Lee writes of the encounter in a new book, Trapped, which he has co-authored with his wife, Julie."
