A statement by Four Winds said: Known as Mo to his friends in the industry, Mr Mohammed has been ever loyal to FIDI and his leadership has always emphasised compliance to FIDI standards. He made many friendships and partnerships and, most of all, wonderful memories in his many years of attendance at most of the past FIDI conferences before his retirement. Rasheed Ali, a colleague at Four Winds, was among those also paying tribute on LinkedIn. My exemplary mentor, caring travel mate, generous fellow man, and most of all a great human being.
