British national detained without charge for 6 months in UAE

A British National, Christian Wilke, has been detained without charge for almost six months in the UAE. Wilke, a dual British and German national, had been working as an IT teacher at a local school before he was detained by UAE authorities. His mother has launched an online petition, calling for her son’s immediate release, which states that he was denied access to a lawyer for 52 days after his detention and contact with family was limited to a surveilled 5-minute phone call.
