He was the
eldest son of Dubai's Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum - a handsome
royal playboy with a glittering future ahead of him.
But on Saturday, 33-year-old Sheikh Rashid was laid to rest after apparently dying of a heart attack at home on Friday.
Now,
Daily Mail Online can reveal that the untimely death of Sheikh Rashid
has left many questions unanswered - in particular what caused an
apparently healthy man to die at such a young age.
Rashid, who
at one point held a number of high profile roles, quietly withdrew from
public life in the years leading up to his death and became an enigmatic
figure in the emirate he was once destined to rule.
Born
in November 1981, Rashid was the son of Dubai's ruler Sheikh Mohammed
and his principal wife, Sheikha Hind bint Maktoum bin Juma Al Maktoum.
Sheikh
Mohammed is a modernizer, albeit one with two wives and 24 children,
and has transformed what was once a dusty patch of sand into a
glittering modern metropolis.
He
has also parlayed what was a small trickle of oil into tourist dollars,
making Dubai, with its mega-malls and year-round sunshine into one of
the top tourist destinations in the Middle East.
Through
his Godolphin racing stable, Sheikh Mohammed is a prominent figure in
the horse world and regularly attends prestigious race meetings such as
Royal Ascot in Britain.
Sheikha
Hind, by contrast, is almost never seen. The 53-year-old first cousin
of her husband, she is known as 'the First Lady of Dubai' and is mother
to 12 of his children
