I was already terrified based on the number of stories regarding poppy seeds from bagels leading to imprisonment.

You should also be terrified by the fact that one of the royals, Issa bin Zayed Al Nahyan, is seen on video torturing a business partner, and suffered no repercussions after the video came out in 2009.

Of course, the torture victim and his brother who released the video were convicted by UAE courts.
