Well that's the Police pretty much caught in a lie because, if you remember, they also said to the visiting British Embassy official( who visited on the 11th April)
that Mr Brown did not want to see him and had ‘declined consular assistance’.
From the accounts so far we can ascertain this timeline:
*Wed 6th April:
- Mr Brown arrested and taken to Bur Dubai Police station.
*Sometime between Wed 6th April and Mon 11th April:
- The sister of Mr Brown recieves a phone call saying her brother is being beaten.
- The sister informs the British Embassy in Dubai
*Mon 11th April:
- British Embassy Official visits Police station and is turned awy
- this is also the same day that Police 'say' Mr Brown started vomiting but did not complain or ask for medical help.
*Tues 12th April:
- Mr Brown dies
- The sister recieves another call to say her brother has died.
*Tues 12th/Wed 13th April:
- Mr Brown's family must have been offically told of his death by the British Embassy then for it to make the Thurs morning papers.
Seems to me that the Police have been caught out by their very own statements before an investigation has even had the chance to begin yet.
'An unnamed police official told the paper: "These reports in the media that he was beaten by police are a pack of lies."
The official added that the British tourist was vomiting from the day before his death but did not complain or ask for medical help.'
