FBI role in Nostromo attack & Princess Latifa abduction deflected by White House press secretary

FBI involvement in attack on US flagged yacht in international waters, deflected by White House press secretary Jen Psaki. Victims of the Nostromo attack are appalled that instead of offering the US flagged yacht protection from piracy, aggravated assault and abduction, they assisted the offenders and put American lives at risk.

A USA Today report makes some serious allegations against the FBI, including violations of protocol and negligence that led to the violent assault and abduction of a US citizen. The report alleges that Sheikh Mohammed claimed to US agents that Latifa had been kidnapped, despite her history of escape attempts. The FBI, it alleges, wanted to play ‘hero’ and help the Sheikh by obtaining locational data via Nostromo’s US based satellite provider, KVH. In the absence of a subpoena, the FBI may have violated local laws and protocols in doing so.

The FBI, The UAE Embassy in Washington DC, the White House and the State department declined to comment.
