French authorities open an investigation into accusations of complicity in acts of torture against the crown prince of Abu Dhabi, Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan
Abu Dhabi's Crown Prince Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan attends the Gulf Cooperation Council summit in Mecca, Saudi Arabia May 30, 2019.
Multiple sources with knowledge of the case told AFP that a French investigating magistrate had been mandated to take on the probe, which will notably look at acts allegedly committed in the war in Yemen. MBZ — a close ally of Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman — is seen as one of the most influential leaders in the region and has also built a tight alliance with French President Emmanuel Macron.
It alleges that MBZ as commander in chief of UAE forces is likely to have provided the "means and orders for these violations to be carried out".
