A man has been sentenced to one year in jail in Dubai, followed by deportation, for stabbing an expat.
The Dubai Criminal Court has sentenced a 35-year-old African man to one-year imprisonment after convicting him of stabbing an Asian man, leaving him with a permanent disability.
According to police investigation, the case dates back to May 2021, when an eyewitness filed a report about an Asian man being stabbed by an African.
The report said that the convict was illegally displaying alcoholic drinks in a corridor between buildings. The victim had bought a drink from him after which the African man took him by surprise by stabbing him with a knife that he had in his possession.
The convict seriously injured the victim and fled from the scene.
The eyewitness added that he covered the victim's wound with a piece of cloth before calling an ambulance and filing a police report.
During investigations, the victim said that he had bought a drink for Dh5 from the accused -- when he had moved just a few steps away, he was taken by surprise as the seller attacked him with a knife.
