Open letter to the UAE: Release Matthew Hedges
22 October, 2018
We, the undersigned, call for the immediate release of Matthew Hedges, a PhD student in the School of Government and International Affairs (SGIA), Durham University. Matt was arrested on 5 May 2018 at Dubai International Airport as he was leaving the UAE. Matt was in the UAE to conduct a series of interviews for his PhD thesis which examines the role of civil-military relations in the UAE post-Arab spring. He had permission to be there and to meet and interview officials with knowledge of civil-military relations in the Emirates.
For almost six months, Matthew has been held in solitary confinement at an undisclosed location in Abu Dhabi. He has had extremely limited access to British consular authorities and access to legal representation was only granted a week ago. Information about his case and the reasons for his detention were withheld from his family, Durham University and the Foreign and Commonwealth Office. It is only in the last week that the UAE authorities have charged Matthew with gathering information to share with a foreign agency – the British intelligence. This charge is totally without foundation.
Matthew’s physical and mental health have deteriorated. He was forced to sleep on the floor for the first four and a half months after his arrest, denied access to regular showers and prevented from receiving any reading material that might help allay his mental anguish. Since his detention, it has come to light that Matthew suffers from anxiety and depression; amongst other worrying symptoms, he has expressed suicidal thoughts in the brief communications he has had with his wife. The conditions in which he has been kept are degrading and inhumane and violate all internationally accepted practices over the detention of individuals.
We call upon the Emirati authorities to release Matthew Hedges without delay. Not only is he an innocent man being held unjustly, but it also places into question existing and future academic ties between the UK and the UAE. British scholars can no longer regard the Emirates as a safe place for legitimate academic research, despite the efforts of the UAE government to encourage educational exchanges between UK institutions and the UAE. By his unjustified detention, prolonged arrest in solitary confinement, lack of access to proper legal advice and limited consular access, Matthew’s rights have been and continue to be denied by the UAE authorities.
