A 27-year-old African man was acquitted of forgery charges by the Dubai Criminal Court after he was prosecuted along with other accomplices for forging a vehicle contract.
Official records indicate that an employee of a car rental company had filed a report against the accused and his accomplices, after they had used another individual’s ID and driving licence to rent one of the company’s vehicles.
According to the employee’s testimony, the defendants had passed around the same ID and driving licence to rent from the company, until their crime was noticed and reported to police.
Investigations had led to the innocence of the African accused, while his accomplices remain on trial.
