I've read a lot about the labour camps where the construction workers building Dubai’s dazzling skyline call home but until now, I'd never visited one.
It's virtually impossible to get permission to film inside these camps as they provide images you'll never see on any Dubai tourism brochure.
The only reason we could film the Jose Camp is because the company owner has fled the country leaving 38 workers in a hopeless situation.
You can see their story here:
Still no news as to when they might be given permission to leave or their 10 months of unpaid wages.
The defacto spokesperson for the group is 28-year-old Mohammed Ahktar, a quietly spoken labourer from the Punjab region of Pakistan.
