An Emirati prince is seeking asylum in Qatar after fleeing the UAE
saying he feared for his life because of a dispute with the rulers of
oil-rich Abu Dhabi
He arrived in Doha on May 16, 2018
Sheikh Rashid bin Hamad al-Sharqi, 31, is the second son of the Emir of Fujairah, one of the seven monarchies making up the United Arab Emirates.
Abu Dhabi is the capital and the richest emirate of the UAE.
Along with Saudi Arabia, Egypt and Bahrain, the United Arab Emirates cut all ties with Qatar in June 2017, accusing Doha of supporting Islamist groups and being too close to Gulf archrival Iran.
Qatar, the world's largest exporter of liquified natural gas, denies the accusations.
