Irish family members of Ryan Cornelius, a British businessman jailed for fraud in the United Arab Emirates, whose imprisonment has been labelled unfair by the United Nations, have sought to enlist the help of MEPs and EU officials in an effort to have him released.
Heather Cornelius and Chris Pagett, respectively Ryan’s wife and brother-in-law, visited the European Parliament in Brussels to ask MEPs to help put pressure on the UAE to release him.
