I'm not sure. But I can't find out until I contact them. And also if there has been a miscarriage of justice sometimes the press can help.

Re: Al Barsha, Dubai
Hi all,
I'm a journalist from the Independent newspaper in the UK and I wondered if anyone could help me with an article I'm writing about someone who lives in <snip>Villas.
Basically it's been reported in the UAE press that a British businessman called <snip> who lived in <snip>villas has been sentenced to life in prison in the Dubai courts this week for alleged drugs offences.
I'm trying to find anyone who might know him to find out if he has been unfairly treated by the courts. If anyone can shine a light on the case I'd be grateful if you could contact me before Saturday at [email protected].
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help.

Perhaps the old fashioned method of boots on the ground will help here.
Good luck with the story.

I live in Al Barsha, in a compound and I love it, no issues with maintenance, we have on site and they come immediately. Google Casablanca Villas, Al Barsha, they are handled by Rocky Real Estate and I think there are a couple empty. They are very family orientated and the kids are always out in the street, very safe.
Viewed them this week.
Much nicer in my opinion is the API compound, 2 villas, 4 bed for 200,000 incl appliances, available now.
Just in case anyone is interested...although I now see its a flipping old thread. ugh.

Re: Al Barsha, Dubai
Had a very pleasant evening in Barsha 3 this weekend. Huge single storey villa, huge side and front garden, parking for 4 cars under shade, big khaya for the maid out back, separate kitchen all for 10K less than my box on AR
Guy on a bike brought the cokes when we ran out but still had Cane left
Looks like a good place to be
