History[edit]
In 1976, the brothers split with Abdul Rahim and Abdul Latif retaining the business by buying out Abdul Wahab.[1]
In 2006, the government of Dubai took a 30 per cent stake in the conglomerate. It was reported the 30 per cent stake replaced Galadari's debt to the government and other companies. A court-appointed by Mohammad Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, the Vice President and Prime Minister of the United Arab Emirates, first restructured the group and then replaced the board with a three-member temporary board.[2]
