A 39-year-old Arab prince reportedly passed away during an incident involving substance use and sexual activity at an upscale penthouse in London
An Arab prince, Sheikh Khalid bin Sultan Al Qasimi, aged 39, was discovered deceased in his luxurious London penthouse in Knightsbridge, reportedly following an incident involving drugs and sexual activity, according to sources. Sheikh Khalid, a United Arab Emirates-born fashion designer and the son of the Sheikh of Sharjah, was found on Wednesday morning.

Upon responding to an ambulance call, the police arrived at the penthouse and purportedly uncovered Class A drugs. The Knightsbridge Apartments, where the incident occurred, boasts 205 opulent residences spread across 12 floors. Detectives are categorizing the tragedy as "unexplained" and have made no arrests.

A source informed The Sun that there had been a gathering where some attendees were using drugs and engaging in sexual activities. It is suspected that Sheikh Khalid may have succumbed suddenly due to drug use. In addition to the police investigation, an internal inquiry has been promptly initiated.

The family possesses a country estate in Sussex, where Sheikh Khalid's elder brother passed away from a heroin overdose in 1999 at the age of 24. Sheikh Khalid's affluent father declared three days of official mourning, stating that Khalid was "in the care of God." As the sole surviving son of the Sheikh, he was a co-owner of the upscale fashion label Qasimi.
