His detention has persisted since then as the authorities require him to pay two million Dirham to secure his release. While still in detention, a fraud incident occurred where his documents were used but this was not enough evidence to secure his release. It is against this backdrop that I request a Statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Defence, Intelligence and Foreign Relations on: 1. The current status and condition of Mr James Kariuki, who is still detained, and whether any assistance has been granted to him. 2. A report on the investigation into the loss of identification documents belonging to Mr James Kariuki reported at Naif Police Station, including unauthorised use by criminals while he was in custody. 3. Steps taken to provide consular support and ensure communication between the detained individual and his family in Kenya. 4. Diplomatic measures being taken by Government to engage with UAE authorities to resolve this matter and ensure his repatriation to re-join his family.
