In Pakistan, kidnap reporting encompasses crimes that have a broad base of motives, from kidnapping for ransom and sexual exploitation to property disputes and elopement. U.S. and foreign nationals working for non-government organizations have been targets, and U.S. nationals have been kidnapped in other countries and held in Pakistan.
Navigating countries such as Pakistan can be exceptionally challenging without the knowledge, and resources, especially when your principal is a High-Value Target (HVT) to potential kidnapping, or attack by an adversary.

Our team deployed eight vehicles, all with security drivers, and one agent per two vehciles. Due to the nature of the organizations industry, an increased threat was present within the region, which meant that this project was complex.
The project itself was spread over a two-week period within the UAE, and required exceptional knowledge of both the geographical locations and venues the principals were visiting. We were able to support with this, due to our extensive network, and facilitate the principals requests, both external to the place of residence, and within it.

We were engaged to facilitate all in-country executive protection and secure transportation. Due to the profile of the principal, and the challenges within these countries, a team of both in-country armed agents, and unarmed agents were deployed, including armoured vehicles, covert quick response forces, and a large advance team.
We were able to initiate, and present a protective security plan within 48 hours, and have assets deployed within the countries above within 72 hours of engagement ahead of the principal's arrival.
SABRE also advised on hotels, route selection, air transportation, and formulated an Emergency Evacuation plan as a contingency.
Recording Artists
United Arab Emirates
2023
Executive Protection
A global music promoter engaged us to deliver executive protection services within the UAE for two high-profile bands, both delivering two separate concerts within two days of one another.
With our extensive network within the region, we had a thorough knowledge of the locations they intended to visit and perform at. The bands hotels were pre-selected, one of which had significant logistical challenges, both for ingress and egress, and the accommodation that was pre-selected.
SABRE advised the client on the complexities and implemented a security strategy to support the client's selection, which ensured the safety and security of the band members.
One of the two bands consisted of six members, all of which travelled in silo, meaning that this project presented several logistical challenges for the team. Despite this, SABRE were able to advise, and plan accordingly, and ensured that artists performed as scheduled.
