Phone tracking spyware likely used to capture Dubai princess, claims former aid

Former French Naval officer Hervé Jaubert, who planned and executed Dubai’s princess Latifa’s failed escape plan three years ago, has said that a geo-location malware in a phone on his yacht most likely revealed their location and led to her capture.

Now, the former French Naval officer who helped Emirati princess Latifa escape from the United Arab Emirates (UAE) in early 2018 has claimed that Latifa’s capture could have been made possible with help of malicious software used to track the compromised cell phones likely carried by Latifa’s friend.

Hervé Jaubert planned Latifa’s escape for years and was responsible for its execution three years ago. Speaking exclusively to India Today TV, Jaubert has said that it was highly unlikely that there was any other way to track Latifa, who was hiding in his yacht, this far from the UAE jurisdiction on the eighth day of their escape.
