Boris Johnson says he is concerned about missing Dubai princess

Prime minister awaiting results of UN investigation after video appears to tell of imprisonment by father

Boris Johnson has said he is concerned about the case of a missing Emirati princess whose secret video messages from what she describes as a villa turned prison have led to calls for international intervention and proof she is still alive.

The UK prime minister said on Wednesday he was concerned" over Sheikha Latifa bint Mohammed bin Rashid's situation but said it was being investigated by the UN commissioner for human rights. I think what we'll do is wait and see how they get on. We'll keep an eye on that," Johnson said.
