The latest position, as reported by Daily Khaleej Times of 29th February 2012 is that the two countries have resolved a method to settle the long pending dispute, especially with regard to the remaining payments. UAE and Pakistan will soon find a solution within weeks to a stand off on final payment of a $2.6 billion telecom deal which enabled Emirates Tele-Communication Corporation ETISALAT to acquire a 26 percent stake in Pakistan Telecommunication Company Limited (PTCL).

“The deal was full of flaws and was against the opinion of the advisors. They had asked the Government to scrap it. ETISALAT claimed that they were just accepting an invitation from the Government of Pakistan to join them in their move towards privatization of PTCL. Mr. Waqar Ahmed Khan, the Federal Minister of the new Government for Privatization revealed before the Pakistan National Assembly that the privatization deal of PTCL with UAE’s Etisalat was not at all transparent and was in gross violation of rules and procedures”.

The information about this scandalous deal between ETISALAT and Pakistan – PTCL’s Privatization – had emerged to be “The Biggest Financial Scam in Pakistan’s History”. View a previous report here:  Etisalat & PTCL Deal 2006 – The Biggest Financial Scam In Pakistan’s History

The History Repeats in India in 2011 – The ETISALAT – SWAN Telecom War

The history repeats in India in 2011 – The ETISALAT-SWAN Telecom war. The revelations of the recent 2G Spectrum case in India foiled another attempt of ETISALAT to make illegal gains in India in partnership with Swan Telecom. This has further tarnished the image of ETISALAT, although its chairman keeps saying that “ETISALAT applies the highest standards of transparency in conducting its business operations”.

The greed of the devil for making money by corrupting individuals, corporations or even a country is a never ending process; and its activities are spreading over the entire universe. Full Text:  ETISALAT, UAE, seek justice after alleged fraud

The patrons against human rights violation have come together to form a commune which was named boycottuae.com

There are four separate reasons to form this commune:

• To stage virtual boycott against UAE government, businesses, vacation and its tourism projects for failing in its duties to ensure protection and shelter to expatriates who are working in the country.
• Enforcing the UAE government to deliver legal justice to innocent victims who were falsely implicated in cases and made to languish in jails for indefinite period of time.
• To develop implementation plan for freeing innocent civilians, Human Rights activists from jails in UAE, and to convey the clear message to UAE government by organizing a mass boycott campaign using the power of internet.
• To ensure that implementation plan is put into action.

While putting up the site we have performed extensive research to present the facts in purest sense. All our research and findings have been incorporated in the website and where ever possible we have tried to include our references for the source of our information.

You can contribute some literature with references about any such human rights violations issues that come to your notice. We thank all those people and organizations who have helped us with news and research.
Our campaign has already met with some success and we were able to impart a severe pressure on UAE government for performing its duties.

This website was hacked for some days by either nervous government (UAE) agencies or people support the government atrocities (Press Release). But in both ways it has now become clear that public opinion is always important and no government can survive by ignoring the demands of its citizens.

Our research is on-going and we expect all like minded people to help us with their valuable excerpts to raise voice against the atrocities of UAE government.

Before his detention, Mansoor told Human Rights Watch that since the beginning of April, he had received six death threats and has been subject to an online smear campaign on social networking websites such as Facebook and Twitter.

“Does the UAE government’s plan for progress include prosecuting and jailing citizens who seek democracy and freedom?” “No gilded towers, no world-class museums or universities, can mask the fact that UAE authorities refuse to grant basic rights to citizens.” said Sarah Leah Whitson, Director at Human Rights Watch, Middle East and North Africa.

On Friday evening the 4th of Feb 2011, the UAE State Security has arrested UAE human rights defender Hasan Mohammed Hasan Al Hammadi from his house in the city of Khor Fakkhan. Front Line has received information suggesting that the reason for his arrest is because he publicly showed his support and solidarity with the Egyptian demonstrators in Tahrir Square.

Further Information
Mr Hassan Mohammed is a prominent educationalist and during his 25 years of service at the Ministry of Education he was awarded several excellency prizes and certificates. He is an active board member of the Teachers Association in UAE (NGO).

He was held by the state security apparatus at Khor Fakkhan State Security after his arrest. No lawyer or family member was allowed to meet him. On the 6th of February 2010, he was transferred to Abu Dhabi to the headquarters of the State Security, about 280 Km from Khor Fakkhan.

Front Line is extremely concerned for the physical and psychological integrity of human rights defender Hasan Mohammed Hasan Al Hammadi as he is not allowed to have access to a lawyer or to contact his family.

There is a risk that Hasan Mohammed Hasan Al Hammadi may be at risk of torture or ill-treatment.

Front Line is calling on the authorities in the UAE to protect and respect the right to freedom of expression and to release Mr. Al Hammadi immediately.
