A British couple, Prakash and Rama Suchdev, were left devastated after selling their London business in order to purchase a Dh1 million flat in Dubai, only for it to be tangled in a conflict between the broker and developer.

The apartment purchased by the couple in Dubai Marina, was repossessed by Dubai Courts. The one-bedroom property is among 35 others in the building which have been repossessed in the similar manner.

60-year-old Prakash Suchdev is aghast. “We have been caught completely unawares. I ran a small retail store in London, but when I developed a heart condition five years back, I sold it off to buy this apartment, hoping to get a steady return on investment. I had never imagined it would all go so horribly wrong.”

Asian Voice tried to contact the Suchdevs but they were unavailable.
