Analysis of information sources in references of the Wikipedia article "لطيفة بنت محمد بن راشد آل مكتوم" in Arabic language version.
Sheikh Mohammed has multiple daughters named Latifa. In recent weeks, one of those Latifas has suddenly appeared frequently in media. The appearances could be an attempt to muddy the picture as local media now make no mention of the Latifa who allegedly tried to leave.
The Nostromo's Maritime Mobile Service Identity number, a nine-digit code broadcast by radio that identifies a ship at sea, showed the vessel in Fujairah on March 20, said Georgios Hatzimanolis, a spokesman for the ship-tracking website MarineTraffic.com.

"I recently visited 3 European countries on holiday with my friend. I asked her to post a few photos online to prove to campaigners that I can travel where I want," said the statement. Law firm Taylor Wessing said the statement was issued under Latifa's instructions in response to queries from Reuters. "I hope now that I can live my life in peace without further media scrutiny. And I thank everyone for their kind wishes."
Reuters could not independently verify whether Latifa has freedom of movement or the circumstances under which the Taylor Wessing statement was issued. Taylor Wessing is a global law firm with 28 offices worldwide, including one in Dubai, its website says.

Highly-placed sources in government have told ThePrint that "there is, indeed, a quid pro quo" – that the princess's father, none other than Dubai ruler Mohammed bin Rashid al-Maktoum, prevailed upon the Narendra Modi government to return his daughter to him. In exchange, Christian James Michel, the alleged middleman in the Rs 3600 crore-AgustaWestland VVIP helicopter deal, was reportedly handed over to Delhi earlier this week.

Kristen Cotten, a 33-year-old skydive instructor and friend of Sheikha Latifa, told the AP the woman in the video and the identification documents is indeed her friend. "I think a lot of people think it's fake just because it sounds so crazy," said Cotten, who was an instructor in Dubai between 2012 and 2016 and now lives in Minnesota. "If I hadn't worked with her and known her and seen her every day I'd probably feel the same way. But that's the same girl I saw every day at the drop zone." Sheikha Latifa also was shown and identified in pictures from 2016 and 2017 on an Instagram account connected to her skydiving club. Past articles in state-linked media also confirm she is a daughter of the ruler.

Two ships belong to the Coast Guard – the ICGS Samarth and Shoor – were part of the mission.
...It was the Indian who attacked us, who brutalized us it was the Indians. Once the Indians took over the boat, the Emirati came on-board, they came from a Helicopter. Special forces Emirati, they came on-board they took over and Indians left. But they did not leave completely, they were escorting us. I saw their warships on both side of the boat, they were escorting us. I know they were Indian Coast Guard because there was painted on the side of the hull, the marking 'Indian Coast Guard' and one of the ship had number '11'...
