Dubai police have sentenced a man to jail for impersonating a police officer in a robbery attempt involving Dh45,000. The incident occurred in April when the victim visited a currency exchange to convert the money into US dollars. However, the victim decided not to proceed due to an unfavourable exchange rate.
Taking advantage of this situation, the accused posed as a police officer to intimidate the victim and attempt to steal the funds. Authorities quickly intervened, leading to the arrest and subsequent court case against the man.
The verdict highlights Dubai’s strict stance on fraud and impersonation crimes, designed to protect both residents and visitors alike. This case also sends a clear message that illegal activities will face severe consequences under UAE law.
This event has raised public awareness about the importance of being cautious and verifying identities in financial transactions. The Dubai police continue their efforts to maintain safety and security in the city.
