Quincy Promes was detained in Dubai due to an appeal from the Dutch prosecutor’s office
Spartak footballer Quincy Promes was detained in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) due to an appeal from the Dutch prosecutor’s office. Mash gave this reason.
According to the source, the Dutch side is demanding that the UAE authorities hand over the player. The Emirates requested additional documents to resolve the issue of extradition. The Dutch prosecutor’s office has 48 hours to do this. Promes’ managers turned to lawyers, including Russian ones, for help.
Earlier, First Deputy Chairman of the State Duma Committee on International Affairs and Olympic speed skating champion Svetlana Zhurova appreciated the opportunity to help Promes. According to her, the Russian authorities are powerless, since the football player is not a citizen of the country.
On February 29, the football player was detained at border control at Al Maktoum Airport in Dubai. The Dutchman was taken to the police station and was accompanied by red and white security officers. On February 14, Promes was sentenced at home to six years in prison for participation in drug smuggling. In the summer of 2023, he received 18 months in prison for attacking his cousin with a knife.
