In addition to the severe prison sentence, the court imposed strict financial restrictions, including a ban on the defendant transferring or depositing funds without prior approval from the UAE Central Bank.
This case underscores the UAE’s firm stance on combating drug trafficking and prioritizing public safety. The defendant’s operation utilized delivery methods akin to popular courier services, which complicated efforts by authorities to track illegal activities. However, through extensive investigations, law enforcement successfully dismantled the network.
Key Details of the Court Ruling
