Dubai drug raid: 'No reason' to hold Liverpool flight attendant
A British flight attendant is being detained in Dubai with "what appears to be no case to answer" over a drugs raid, her MP has said.
Campaign group Detained in Dubai, which is assisting her, said she had been treated "appallingly".
'Bread and jam'
Detained in Dubai's chief executive Radha Stirling said it was "absurd" Ms Crawford was being held by Dubai police, and that she had been in the "wrong place at the wrong time" as her "date allegedly possessed marijuana".
She told the BBC: "Derrin visited an apartment, and was arrested and detained for something she had no control over."
She said the conditions she is being kept in were "appalling and dangerous".
"Human rights violations are thoroughly documented. We are concerned about Derrin's safety."
