Dubai Misdemeanour and minor offenses court sentenced a five-member Asian gang to one month in jail, to be followed by deportation, and fined them Dhs9,900 for defrauding an Arab national by impersonating a police officer and stealing funds from his bank account.
The case dates back to March 2025, when the victim filed a report with Dubai Police, stating he had lost Dhs9,900 after receiving a call from one of the suspects claiming he was a police officer tasked by the Central Bank to update his bank account details.
The gangster threatened the victim that his account would be frozen if the victim did not disclose his card details and PIN so the victim complied, only to discover the amounts were withdrawn moments later.
