He lodged a complaint at Al Rafaa police station. "I arrived in Dubai on a visit visa in May last year. An Indian worker got me a job at a construction site for Dh1,500 a month. But I was only paid Dh100 or Dh50," the complainant, a 24-year-old Indian, told the public prosecution investigator.
He recounted how he had a dispute with one of the accused over his unpaid wages. "I told him I would call the police if I did not get the full payment for working at the site."
The complainant was assaulted as he decided to approach the police. "It was around 1pm on November 19 last year. The two accused, and other men, pulled me inside a building in Al Rafaa. They punched and kicked me. The 27-year-old accused hit me with a steel rod," the complainant said.
They filmed him and allegedly threatened to circulate the clip on social media if he tried to seek police help.
The accused were arrested a few days later. During the prosecution investigation, the defendants reportedly admitted they assaulted the complainant.
The court will issue a ruling on February 23.
