Former Leeds United managing director sues GFH from Dubai jail cell | Football | theguardian.com:



"The former Leeds United managing director David Haigh, who has been held in a jail cell by Dubai police without charge for five months, has sued his former employers and Leeds owners, Gulf Finance House, for alleged deceit.



Haigh’s claim, issued in the high court in London, alleges that GFH, its Dubai subsidiary GFH Capital, the GFH directors Hisham Al Rayes and Jinesh Patel, and a Dubai-based lawyer, Peter Gray of the firm Gibson Dunn, lured him to Dubai in May with the “false” promise of a job.



Instead, Haigh claims, when he arrived at GFHC’s offices in Dubai on 18 May, he was arrested and detained by Dubai police."
