Abu Dhabi Royal was found passed out on street in London after ‘cocaine binge’

The royal was looking after a small child at the time

Mahrah Al Nahyan, 32, is a member, through marriage, of one of the world's richest royal families, the Abu Dhabi royal family.

Al Nahyan was found by passersby who notified authorities after spotting an unattended three-year-old child near busy traffic playing with a scooter.

She was found barefoot beside an unconscious man in West London.

While the incident happened in June, Al Nahyan appeared at Southwark Crown Court on Tuesday for her sentencing.

The judge was told that she had admitted to police to taking cocaine in the days before the incident, however, was too out of it to speak to officers for half an hour after being found, as per The Times.

When she did speak, she told officers: “This is not a slaughterhouse, why do you care so much? Why are you so worried?”

Police said they searched Al Nahyan and found drug paraphernalia but no illegal substances.

Al Nahyan admitted one charge of child neglect.

As reported by The Times, Defence barrister Stephen Vullo KC also told the court that Al Nahyan has been undergoing treatment for drug addiction at a rehab clinic since the incident.

“She made a grave mistake that day, and she knows it,” he said.

Al Nahyan was handed a two-year community order with a rehabilitation requirement. She was also fined £5,000 and ordered to pay £1,000 in prosecution costs.

The court heard she receives a monthly allowance of £8,000.
