Sara Al Madani, a prominent figure on 'The Real Housewives of Dubai', recently detailed a distressing incident involving her former maid that left her and her nine-year-old son, Maktoum, profoundly shaken and fearful. The Emirati media personality divulged unsettling details about the maid's clandestine and perilous activities, which culminated in the maid's apprehension and an ongoing legal battle. On the August 20 episode of the show, Al Madani confided in her friends Nina Ali and Saba Yussouf about the alarming conduct of her former employee. She revealed that the maid had been systematically deactivating the home security cameras over the past six months, enabling unknown individuals to access the house in her absence.
'My maid, for the past six months, has been turning off the cameras in the house, allowing multiple men to enter,' Al Madani explained. 'These men requested pictures of me and my son, as well as information about our whereabouts and routines. On her phone, there were photos of people in her room with alcohol.' The situation escalated to a more horrifying level when Al Madani and her son discovered that these men had been making unsettling remarks about the boy and inquiring about his daily activities. In a private interview, Al Madani described the chilling messages exchanged between the maid and the unidentified men.
'There are messages where these men comment on pictures of my son, saying things like, 'Oh my god, he's cute. We love his hair. We love his skin,' Al Madani recounted. 'They were asking her, 'What time does he come home? Who waits for him? Do they have money?' All these questions point to one thing: Kidnap, ransom. Right now, I'm dealing with a court case, a police case, and my son is traumatized.' Prompted by these alarming developments, Al Madani swiftly took action. She reported the maid to the police and accompanied Maktoum on several visits to the station to safeguard their security. The maid's identity remains undisclosed, but the gravity of the situation has deeply affected the family.
The saga continued when Al Madani decided to dismiss the maid, only to catch her trying to pilfer personal items, including jewelry, her mother's earrings, and even her underwear. Later in the episode, during a polo match, Al Madani shared further disturbing details with her co-stars, revealing more incriminating messages from the maid's WhatsApp.
'I went through the WhatsApp messages,' Al Madani said. 'The man asked, 'What time does the kid go to school? Who picks him up? How does he look like? Send me a picture.' The most revolting part was the man's reaction upon receiving Maktoum's picture: 'It's disgusting because the guy said, 'Send me the boy's picture,' Al Madani recalled. 'He commented, 'Oh, the boy's beautiful.' I was shocked and replied, 'Excuse me?!' I then told him, 'Go to jail, I'm sorry.'
