The prompt action taken by the Sharjah Police against the gang who killed a person over a money dispute is highly laudable (“Man beaten to death over Dhs600 in Sharjah, police arrest 7 people,” Aug.31, Gulf Today website).

It’s a totally cruel act committed by criminal people who beat up a man to death for the sake of a small amount of money. Nobody has the right to kill another person, if there is any dispute between them there are other ways of launching a complaint against the person who borrowed the amount and is unable to return the money.

People should not take law into their own hands. I am sure the insane people will pay the heavy price for their cruel act, they will be published and the family of the victim will get justice.
