Rescue teams fought blizzards and difficult terrain through the night to reach the wreckage
During the trial at the Sharjah Criminal Court, the defendant denied the charges, claiming he knew the family for over five years. He said the family did owe him money, but he never kidnapped the child. He claimed the child "happened to be" with him when the police caught him near a Sharjah bus station.
"The boy was with me for hardly four hours when his family complained to the police that I had abducted him," he claimed in court.
He said he had never put the family "under any kind of pressure" to recover the money they owed him as he was "financially well off".
The case was adjourned till January 6, 2019, to hear the testimonies of the boy and his mother.
