Challenge Family announced today it has employed legal counsel to recover monies owed to media, athletes, contractors and others by Dubai Sports Council in respect of Challenge Dubai 2015.
Over US$45,000 is owed by the Dubai Sports Council to international media, pro athletes in terms of travel expenses and appearance fees, and staff wages and travel costs.
“Despite numerous requests and promises of payment, no renumeration has been forthcoming to any of the creditors,” said Challenge Family CEO, Zibi Szlufcik. "The Dubai Sports Council leaves us with no choice other than to take action on behalf of people who supported the event in good faith. The effect is compounded by the fact that these creditors now have to see Dubai Sports Council investing in other events while they are still owed money.”
