Overview
- Rocco Pooth, 14, arrived in Düsseldorf on Friday night with his father Franjo, brother San Diego, and Louisa Büscher, reportedly on the last flight from Istanbul.
- Franjo reached Dubai via flights through Istanbul and Cairo to Riyadh, then continued by car to the UAE border before an armored transfer into the city, a journey of more than 36 hours.
- He confirmed his arrival in Dubai by Wednesday and said Rocco and Louisa were relieved to see him.
- During the stay in Dubai, Rocco became ill and received three infusions, with Louisa providing care and initially withholding the illness from the family to avoid added alarm, according to Verona’s Instagram.
- The family moved its primary residence to Dubai in summer 2025, and the regional escalation since February 28 caused flight cancellations that set off the complex return to Germany.
