Uitzenddatum: Mrt 11, 2019

Most Australians had probably never heard of Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum till his horse Cross Counter won the Melbourne Cup last year after a two-decade campaign. Now he's in the headlines again, for a very different reason. Last year, his daughter, the Princess Latifa, then aged 32, ran away to escape a life of regal confinement in the hyper wealthy financial hub and tourist destination of Dubai. After fleeing first by car and then jetski, Latifa was dramatically re-captured on a boat in international waters by armed men. In heart stopping interviews, those on-board recount how the events unfolded.
