‘Like torture videos’: New Epstein dossier emails reveal DP World chairman Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem discussed disturbing sexual details with Jeffrey Epstein

The letters reportedly span from before Epstein was convicted and into the 2010s, when he had served his sentence and remained a controversial figure. Bin Sulayem is said to have shared graphic descriptions of sexual encounters with Epstein and information about women in multiple emails that were widely considered inappropriate for a high-profile corporate leader. The emails displayed vulgar language and objectifying references to women, including references to massagephysical descriptions, and personal interactions beyond standard commercial content, a familiarity that has raised concerns among commentators and ethical observers.U.S. Rep. Thomas Massie claimed that Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem sent a particularly disturbing letter. One email included in the document included Epstein writing “I love torture videos” to a redacted recipient, according to lawmakers who have reviewed the unredacted Justice Department documents; Massey claimed that the unnamed sender of the email, described only as “Sudan,” was likely bin Sulayem, prompting calls for the Justice Department to publicly release the full, unredacted documents.

References to the video have fueled debate about transparency, ethics and elite networks tied to Epstein’s long global ties. Public reaction to this topic is based on secondary analysis of partially redacted government documents and statements from U.S. lawmakers, as official Justice Department press releases to date have not directly named individuals in the context of this particular email exchange.

Why these emails between Jeffrey Epstein and Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem are making headlines now

The report’s timing is critical as prosecutors released more than 3 million pages of Epstein-related documents in early 2026, providing the public with unprecedented access to his archived communications with political leaders, business executives and other influential figures around the world. The resulting media investigation revealed that many people in Epstein’s network remained in contact long after his conviction, often in surprisingly candid and personal ways.Across this trove of documents, diplomats, billionaires, public officials and CEOs appear in exchanges ranging from the purely professional to the socially intimate. It illustrates how Epstein’s influence extended far beyond his known criminal conduct to encompass powerful social and financial relationships that lasted for years.DP World, one of the world’s largest port operators responsible for a large portion of global container traffic, has so far declined to comment publicly on the specific allegations arising from the emails. Although bin Sulayem remains a central figure in Dubai’s business elite, as of this writing, the organization has not issued a formal statement on the content or context of Epstein’s letters.
