A gang of four Arabs were arrested in Sharjah for stealing 1,840 laptops worth more than Dh1 million, police said on Thursday. They were nabbed less than 48 hours after the heist.
An Asian man, who works in a transport services company, said he was on his way to deliver the laptops when the gang stopped him in an industrial area, pretending to be police officers. He discovered later that he had been scammed.

Less than two days after the fraud was reported to the Central Operations Room, the Sharjah Police managed to track down the suspects and take them into custody.
"After verifying the information, a team of officers immediately started the investigation," said Col Abdul Rahman Nasser Al Shamsi, deputy director of the Criminal Investigations Department of the Sharjah Police.
"Based on the data they had gathered, they tracked down the suspects and monitored them closely before arresting them and bringing them to justice," he said.
The Sharjah Police called on the community to stay vigilant and report any malicious activity or behaviour in their neighbourhoods. Residents may reach out by dialling 999 for emergencies and 901 for non-urgent cases. Online channels are also open to all.
