The defendant had been detained for another criminal complaint. The incident happened on June 18 and 19 and the case was registered at the Bur Dubai police station.
Two other Pakistanis, both aged 40, are charged with aiding and abetting the defendant. All three are detained.
The sergeant said during the public prosecution investigation: "I was surprised when the main accused approached me and offered me whatever I wanted for helping him."
The officer recounted how the accused asked him to let him call someone so that he could escape. The policeman told the investigator that he asked the accused to wait till the next day so he could 'consider' his offer. "I alerted the section head and another officer about the matter. The senior officer told me to make the defendant believe I was in for his offer so that the latter could be caught red-handed after taking the necessary legal procedures."
The defendant's two accomplices were arrested later at the parking lot of the police station right after handing over Dh15,000 to the officer as part of the bribe. The remaining was to be paid later.
The main accused admitted to the charge during the police interrogation.
The Dh15,000 has been seized.
A ruling will be pronounced on October 25.
