The Dubai Court of Appeal has upheld a three-month prison sentence for a defendant for assaulting three men with a knife, threatening them, and using offensive language during a late-night altercation in Dubai\u2019s Business Bay area. According to case records, the incident happened around 2:45 a.m. on April 4, 2024, when the defendant, an Egyptian along with another individual who remains at large, forced their way into a vehicle driven by the first victim, who is also an Egyptian.<\/p>\n
According to investigations, the first victim was shocked when the defendant’s accomplice opened the rear passenger door and grabbed him by the neck after he had just ended work in the Business Bay area and gotten into his car.<\/p>\n
According to the victims’ claims, the intruders used derogatory language against him and asked that the victim drive them somewhere else. The accomplice in the rear seat pulled out a knife, put it to the victim’s neck, and once more told him to drive after the victim refused to obey and demanded an explanation. The victim opened the car’s sunroof and yelled for assistance in an attempt to sound the alarm during the 15-minute standoff. After hearing his cries, two men both Egyptians hurried to the location.<\/p>\n
