Sheikha Latifa bint Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum (Arabic: لطيفة بنت محمد بن راشد آل مكتوم, romanized: Laṭīfa bint Muḥammad bin Rāshid al-Maktūm; born 5 December 1985) is an Emirati sheikha and a member of the Dubai ruling family. She is the daughter of Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Prime Minister of the UAE, and an Algerian woman named Huriah Ahmed al M'aash.[1][2][3][4][5]

Sheikha Latifa has two half-sisters with the same name.[6] She is the full sister of Sheikha Maitha (born 1980), Sheikha Shamsa (born 1981),[7][8][9] and Sheikh Majid (born 1987).[10]

Sheikha Latifa escaped from Dubai in late February 2018 and was forcibly returned from international waters near the Indian coast by a joint India–Emirates operation on 4 March 2018.[11] In December 2018, the Dubai royal court said that she was back in Dubai.[12][13] She was believed to be held against her will under the order of her father, Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum.[14][15] In June 2021, a brief statement issued on her behalf by law firm Taylor Wessing stated that she was free to travel and wants privacy.[16][17] In August 2021 and after Latifa had been photographed in public places in Dubai, Spain and Iceland, the #FreeLatifa campaign, which had lasted three and a half years, came to an end.[18] In February 2022, the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, Michelle Bachelet, stated that she met Latifa in Paris and that Latifa was well and wished for respect for her privacy.[19]
