No matter what you say about the UAE, one thing for sure is that justice will always be served here.

Case in point- on Tuesday, Dubai’s Court of First Instance handed a three-year prison sentence to a 29-year-old Egyptian man for kidnapping seven maids from Dubai International Airport.

The unemployed man was found guilty of luring unsuspecting women by posing as a recruitment agent looking to hire them for domestic work before selling their services to families, according to The National.

The kidnappings happened in August, 2017

The incident dates back to August 2017 when the the Egyptian national, who was an expat at the time, managed to kidnap seven women from Asia and Africa.

He proceeded to seize the maids’ passports and phones and hold them captive at an apartment in Dubai until he fooled the families by selling their services with fake contracts.

He was caught after a group of maids managed to escape and alert the authorities. Upon capturing, he admitted to his crime and told the police that he did this because he was in debt and needed money.

After serving his jail time, he will be rightly deported from the country.
