Sharjah: The Sharjah Police have confiscated 11 pickup trucks that were illegally used as mobile car repair workshops. These trucks provided tyre repair services to vehicles on the road shoulder of some roads and highways in the emirate.

The arrest was made in cooperation with the Inspection section of the Sharjah Municipality.
