Would appreciate any help from anyone with a good media connection to get this story out.

They pretty much will not tell you that they are not going to not pay you but tell you that either you can accept no money on what is owed to you or a "Roll Over on the Debt owed". 5 years ago we owed you 10 Billion dollars,next month the $10 Billion dollars are due, we will not pay you the the $10 Billion dollars owed but will roll over the $10 Billion owed for a minimum of another 10 years and this time will pay you less then 4% interest that was supposed to be paid last time. Accept or accept nothing... They pretty much roll it over until the guy who is owed money dies and then that person can no longer collect and now we no longer owe that person any money.

What you failure to understand, the pray 5 times of day is to keep them distracted so make sure the general public does not see what the guy is doing behind the curtain. While everyone is busy kneeling and bowing to the east, the guy is walking behind them picking their pockets. Unlike Romans that feed the Christian to the lions to keep the public amused so they did not pay attention to all the bad things the ruling class was doing, in the UAE, they make everyone prey while the do the same thing.

The sad and unfortunate part is that those found guilty of crimes can get certificates like Diplomats which pretty much gives them immunity from any further prosecution. Basically they can go out to con and cheat people. Those conned or cheated can go after them in court. Once found guilty they are pardoned. Once pardoned you try and go after them again. When you do go after them they can now apply for these certificates that protect them from any further prosecution meaning no lawyer will take your case as they will not accept a case of going after a local for prosecution knowing that the local has a certificate that protects them from any future prosecution.

The freed nationals have been presented with certificates to protect them from any future prosecution, said the UAE's official state news agency. Citizens in similar situations should report to the Public Prosecution to receive the certificates, it added.

Do you have any new information or something that hasn't been released yet? Or do you just want more exposure on the same things you just linked?
