The police said they received a complaint on a day before Eid eve about the theft of Dh1,105,000 and a team of police officials rushed to the site and lifted finger prints. The police managed to identify two suspects who believed to have connection with the crime.

Both the suspects were detained and during interrogation, they confessed that they participated in the crime which was planned and carried out by the third suspect who left the country via road to a neighboring county.

They also told the police that the stolen amount was with someone in Abu Dhabi, who was trying to transfer it in parts to avoid making the police suspicious. The Sharjah Police coordinated with the Abu Dhabi Police and arrested the suspect and recovered the money.
