Jailed for life

DUBAI — The Dubai Court has sentenced yesterday an Egyptian national, Hatem Ali, to life-term for possessing and trafficking in drugs. The customs officers suspected the passenger who arrived at the Dubai International Airport on January 6 at 9pm. When they searched his bags, they found him hiding large quantities of hashish in a secret place in his bag. So, he was arrested and taken into police custody. He confessed to the crime.
