Dubai is a dangerous place to live, NOT the open society it claims to be.
Dubai is a trap, where the laws established by the rulers never apply to them, so many
foreigners are held, imprisoned without charges or even missing, conveniently forgotten
because of politic, economic or military interests, but Herve Jaubert got out and can now
speak out.
"Had I not escaped, I would be sitting in a hole, on trumped up charges and fabricated
evidences with no chances to ever be released.
Many other innocent expatriates could not escape and are jailed indefinitively on false
charges, they are forgotten by their Countries, too complacent with Dubai corrupt
rulers". Herve jaubert

ESCAPE
AUTHOR DETAILS ON THE
ESCAPE
Running for your life in complete clandestine, in disguise, and escaping without a passport do not give you
much opportunities to go about with a camera around the neck, taking pictures and keeping receipts.
Doing so is even the best way to get caught because of the evidence you would be carrying along.
My story is based on true events, I changed names, locations and time line to prevent Dubai World and
Dubai Police from reconstructing the events and arrest the innocents who helped me.

Bill of sale: I purchase my escape sail
boat, "Lady Lucie", named after my son
Lucien, from Sheikh Khaled Bin
Zayed, brother of the UAE President,
and under somebody's else name. It is
ironic that while Dubai Government
trapped me in the country, a member of
the ruling family unknowingly provided
me with a mean to get out.

With Dubai modern technology
it is impossible to temper with a passport
and pass the controls at the airport or the
borders. In 2008, 800 people got caught
with a fake passport.
