Court Acquitted An Expat Who Was Accused Of Swindling An Individual

05 April 2017 Crime News

The Appeal Circuit of the Misdemeanor Court acquitted an expatriate who was accused of swindling an individual and appropriating the engine of a “Porsche” car. The Public Prosecution had accused the suspect of double-crossing the victim by fraudulently handing over to him the engine of a Lamborghini and appropriating the engine of his Porsche car. Earlier, the Misdemeanor Court sentenced the defendant in absentia to two-week imprisonment followed by deportation but he appealed the ruling, forcing the court to abstain from issuing a punishment. The court instead issued an undertaking without guarantee obligating the defendant to show good behavior for a period of six months. At the Appeal Circuit, the defense counsel Lawyer Dalal Al-Mutairi affirmed that the charges filed against her client lack incriminating evidence, adding that the evidence brought forward by the prosecution was inadequate and weak. She also stressed that her client had declined the charges from the onset of investigations.
