UAE is not a place of intolerance or a place to practise hate towards any ethnicity, religion, language or gender and the country has gone beyond to make this very clear.

The UAE Federal Public Prosecution has ordered the arrest and provisional detention of an Emirati media person named TM for making racist comments in a video being widely circulated online that had come to their attention.

The video of the accused raised red flags with the authorities as the content sought to create divisions based on ethnicity and nationality among the various communities living in the UAE.

The video was particularly offensive to one community…

It was found to be an affront to the UAE and its efforts to disseminate the values of tolerance, besides violating the UAE’s foundational principles of justice and equality.

The Spokesperson further wanted all social media users to adhere to the Law of the land and to respect its primary values that stress on respect for all. He also asked people not to sow seeds of division among people in the name of ethnicity, religion, language or gender.
