A Burglar Ironically Left After Finding No Valuables To Steal In A Dubai Villa

Farah Makhlouf

Most robbery incidents are scary… but not this one. Robbers typically break into people’s homes to nab anything worth a lot like jewels, cash, antiques and art. This one Dubai villa robber was not so lucky in his endeavour.

A burglar attempted to rob a villa in Dubai but couldn’t find any valuables worth stealing… so he left

The Public Prosecution charged him with two counts of attempted theft and trespassing once he admitted his crimes

The suspect was targeting vacant houses and came across a woman’s villa. He climbed over the fence and broke into the home, but to his disappointment, he found no valuable items or cash! So, he casually left the home but was caught.

He was quickly arrested by Dubai Police and referred to the Public Prosecution. He will be imprisoned for one month and then deported, according to a report by Emarat Al Youm.
