Fresh case filed against Mexican gang
2006-08-28
Dubai: The Al Ghusais Police has filed a fresh case against a Mexican gang. According to court sources, the four suspects will face a new trial at the Dubai Court of First Instance after Al Ghusais Police filed a fresh case against the gang on charges of stealing from residential villas. The gang of four identified as J.J., R.L., J.R. and A.M. were sentenced last month to three months in jail and deportation.

The Dubai Public Prosecution appealed against the verdict. The two cases will now be heard by the end of this month. The defence lawyer told Gulf News earlier that evidence against his clients was "weak".

In March, police busted the gang for stealing laptops, computer equipment and other valuable electronic appliances and jewellery from villas while their occupants were away. Police arrested the suspects after setting a trap, following a number of complaints of burglary. The gang also used to send the stolen jewellery by cargo to an Asian country where the wife of one suspect owns a jewellery shop.

#5  A fine play on words, nonetheless, Oh Hairy One.

Indeed, the servants outnumber the citizens in the UAE. I've been there many times - going back to the day when "Chicago Beach" was the place to score BA stews...

#4  I don't think Pappy was joking. A lot of the manual labor in the Emirates is done by people from "Somewheres else." And I'm not talking about alternate dimensions. Although if such are discovered I expect the managers of the UAE to attempt to hire from there too.
