Last February, an Asian reported that he had been robbed by a gang of four people, including a Gulf national.

The victim said that he received a call from one of the accused, telling him that he is a jeweller and wants to form the gold bar he owns.

He then agreed to meet the accused near a jewellery shop in Karama, where he was surprised to see three others.

The others claimed to be policemen and said that he was going to be arrested for promoting fake gold.

They then attempted to rob him, but he resisted them. However, the gang attacked him, stole the gold bar and fled the scene.

A policeman involved in the investigation said that a CID team collected inferences and was able to identify the owner of the vehicle used to commit the crime. This led the team to the other members of the gang who had the gold bar in their possession.
