Usually, on the Gulf News website, there's a bit where you can comment on individual stories.

Nothing there for this story? Again - no surprise.

I thought there were calls for newspapers here to become a little 'braver'.

This is a huge story...

What about the guy who was jailed for eating a poppyseed roll before he came to Dubai is that an urban myth or is he still locked up somewhere?

NedKelly63

Not sure about him. But the guy with 0.003 stuck in the sole of his boot spent 5 months in the slammer before being let out.

If they dismissed the Asif case for insignificance, even in the face of clear intent to use the substance, then what kind of precedent does that set here?

Yeah I know - none whatsoever.

A couple of years ago, the world's governing body for cricket, the International Cricket Conference ("ICC"), relocated its headquarters from the home of English cricket (Lord's) to............ er..........

............. Dubai.
