Human Rights Watch on Saturday urged the Dubai authorities to reveal the whereabouts of the princess, saying her case could constitute "enforced disappearance". A source close to the Dubai government has said only that Latifa was indeed brought back to Dubai and was "with her family" and "doing excellent". Her case has since been taken up by the UK-based advocacy group Detained in Dubai, which has alerted the UN's human rights commission. "I'm making this video because it could be the last video I make," she says, adding that she is "99% positive" her escape would succeed. Latifa's video was published once it became clear that her attempt to get away, which began on February 24, had failed.
