Emiratis urged to avoid national attire abroad
DUBAI: The United Arab Emirates has advised its citizens to avoid wearing traditional Arab clothing in Western countries after US police "brutally" detained an Emirati businessman suspected of being a Jihadist.
The 41-year-old, visiting the United States for medical treatment, was wearing a white robe and Arab headdress on Wednesday when he was arrested at a hotel in Cleveland, Ohio after an employee suspected he had pledged allegiance to the Islamic State (IS) group, apparently in a phone call. A video of the incident, posted on Youtube, shows several policemen armed with rifles take down Ahmed al-Menhali, and then handcuff and search him. "They were brutal with me. They pressed forcefully on my back. I had several injuries and bled from the forceful nature of their arrest," Menhali said, quoted in The national daily. The Emirati foreign ministry, in a statement posted on Twitter, urged citizens "**t to wear the national dress during their travel, especially in public areas, to ensure their own safety". After confirming that Menhali posed ** danger, the policemen let go of the Emirati man, who said he collapsed and needed treatment in hospital. أكثر... ??????? ??????: Emiratis urged to avoid national attire abroad || ??????: ahlam1399 || ??????: اسم منتداك
