An eight-member gang of African origin is facing trial on charges of robbery after they targeted an investor of Asian descent, who had withdrawn Dh190,000 from a bank.
The incident had occurred in January, Dubai Police records showed.
The 69-year-old investor had filed a complaint with the police, when he was robbed by two members of the gang after he left the bank’s branch.
The victim had withdrawn the money to pay his company’s workers, when he was targeted by the robbers.
