Sheikh to be asked to aid British banks

London: Nick Anstee, the lord mayor of the City of London, plans to ask Dubai’s ruler, Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid al Maktoum, to help British banks owed money in the second-largest sheikhdom in the United Arab Emirates.

“There are about five banks which are owed a considerable sum of money,” Anstee said.

“I have a reasonable expectation that I will meet all parties from Sheikh Mohammed al Maktoum downwards.”
