A 29-year-old porter at the Dubai airport has been sentenced to three months in jail and fined Dh28,000 on charges of stealing mobile phones from a passenger's bag.
The Dubai Criminal Court ordered the authorities to deport the expat after his prison term.
During the investigation, the Asian told the Court that he sold six mobile phones he stole from the bag at half the price to buy sunglasses.
According to police, the case dates back to March 2021 when an Asian passenger discovered upon arrival in his home country that six mobile phones were missing from his suitcase.
