- Kentucky Republican Representative Thomas Massie identified Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem as the recipient of Jeffrey Epstein's email referencing a 'torture video'.
- Sulayem is the chairman and CEO of DP World, a major UAE-based logistics firm.
- The email, dated April 24, 2009, was released by the Department of Justice (DOJ) with some redactions.
- Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche confirmed Sulayem's identity in the unredacted files.
- Sulayem maintained a relationship with Epstein even after Epstein's 2008 conviction for soliciting an underage prostitute.
- The nature of the 'torture video' remains unknown.
- Congress has pushed for full transparency under the Epstein Files Transparency Act, leading to the release of around 3.5 million documents.
- Maryland Democratic Representative Jamie Raskin criticized the DOJ for unnecessary redactions and limited access to unredacted files.
- Raskin and other lawmakers were given restricted access to review the files, with only four computers available.
