This is not the correct line of succession.
An Emirati royal was found passed out on a UK street following a cocaine binge while caring for a young child.
Mahrah Al Nahyan, 32, a member of Abu Dhabi’s royal family by marriage, was discovered barefoot and slumped against metal gates by concerned members of the public on a west London street in June, the Times of London reported.
Video taken by a bystander shows her passed out next to an unconscious man lying on his back.
A barefoot toddler was playing next to a busy road where Al Nahyan was found, while the public stayed with her until police arrived. The royal’s relationship with the 3-year-old has not been disclosed.
Al Nahyan, who admitted to using cocaine in the days before the incident, was too exhausted to respond to police for half an hour, the judge was told during sentencing Tuesday.
When she finally spoke, she shouted at the cops: “This isn’t a slaughterhouse, why do you care so much? Why are you so worried?”
A passerby “noticed that the child was unsupervised, without shoes, on the street with a scooter and members of the public intervened because he appeared to be near moving traffic,” prosecutor Rio Pahlavanpour told the judge.
Officers searched Al Nahyan and found drug paraphernalia, but no illegal substances, police said.
The Abu Dhabi royal family is worth around $300 billion, making them one of the richest dynasties in the world.
Al Nahyan admitted a charge of child neglect and has been receiving drug treatment at a rehabilitation clinic since the incident, his lawyer, Stephen Vullo KC, told the judge.
“She intends to complete all stages of a three-month program which will conclude at the end of this month,” he said.
He added that she planned to rent a house near the rehabilitation clinic and become a day patient attending Narcotics Anonymous after the program ended.
“She made a big mistake that day and she knows it,” Vullo said.
Al Nahyan was sentenced to a two-year community order with a rehabilitation condition, and fined a total of just under $8,000 by Judge Johnson KC.
She receives a monthly allowance of just over $10,500, the judge was told.
