  "textContent": "\n\n\nLee Andrews, the \"missing\" husband of Katie Price, is currently being held in a Dubai prison following his arrest by UAE authorities, according to his father, Peter Andrews.\n\nThe bodybuilder disappeared 11 days ago after sending the former glamour model footage appearing to show him hooded with bound hands, claiming he had been abducted.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nMr Andrews, a businessman who operates an insulation and air conditioning company in Dubai's Al Quoz district, confirmed his son's arrest to the Daily Mail.\n\nHe stated: \"Lee is OK. He has not been kidnapped, but he is under arrest. I don't know on what charge.\"\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nTRENDING\n\nStories\n\nVideos\n\nYour Say\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nA police source separately verified that Mr Andrews had been taken into custody.\n\nBefore his arrest, Mr Andrews had sent a series of text messages and voice recordings to Ms Price, the mother of five, insisting he had been kidnapped after being forced into a vehicle and transported to what he described as a \"black site\" while attempting to travel to London to see her.\n\nHis father said he was uncertain where his son was being held but expected to receive a telephone call from him later that day.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n\"He is not at my house,\" Mr Andrews added.\n\nThe UK Foreign Office had been notified of the situation after Ms Price announced her fourth husband was missing and expressed concern for his welfare, although their Dubai-based staff could find no trace of him.\n\nBrigadier Khalid Khalifa al Avadhi, the chief of Dubai Police, has confirmed Mr Andrews faces numerous arrest warrants, with fraud being the primary charge.\n\n### LATEST DEVELOPMENTS\n\n\n\n\n  * Katie Price's husband outlines 'crazy' plan to buy Chelsea just four years after £4billion sale\n  * Atomic Kitten star Natasha Hamilton defiantly shuts down cruel trolls for appearance remarks\n  * Netflix confirms Emma Willis future on hit dating show following BBC Strictly hosting announcement\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n\"There are many cases against him,\" the brigadier stated.\n\nMr Andrews' former wife, an American expatriate who requested anonymity due to fears of retaliation, claimed the number of outstanding warrants stands at approximately 20, the majority relating to fraudulent activity.\n\nShe expressed no surprise at his detention, explaining Dubai's extensive surveillance network made it risky for him to appear in public spaces such as airports.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n\"Here in Dubai the police will not go looking for him,\" she said.\n\n\"But if his face appears on a surveillance camera then they will detain him,\" she added, stating Mr Andrews wore a cap to avoid facial recognition systems.\n\n**Our Standards: The GB News Editorial Charter**",
