In her first in-depth broadcast interview since winning the High Court disqualification case regarding the disbanded children's charity Kids Company, its founder, Camila Batmanghelidjh, psychotherapist and author, joined Emma earlier this week. The High Court judgement came about because the Official Receiver claimed that Camila Batmanghelidjh, and seven former trustees of the charity Kids Company, had failed to properly manage the charity in the final months of its existence. After a three and a half year case, and 10 weeks in court, Mrs Justice Falk praised Camila Batmanghelidjh for the 鈥渆normous dedication she showed to vulnerable young people over many years鈥 and her achievements in building a charity that 鈥渦ntil 2014 was widely regarded as a highly successful one". Camila tells Emma why she fought so long and hard to be cleared.
Last week, the 成人快手 obtained videos in which Princess Latifa, the daughter of Dubai's ruler described being held in solitary confinement after trying to flee the United Arab Emirates.

Emma discusses the story with Jane McMullen, the 成人快手 journalist who broke this story for Panorama with her film The Missing Princess and Rothna Begum, a senior women's rights researcher at Human Rights Watch.
