In what can be described as extremely strange circumstances, a British tourist has been linked to the death of an elderly woman (aged 60) who collapsed and died of heart-attack after the tourist’s shoulder brushed against the victim while exiting the elevator. 

Sharjah Police has now ordered the British woman, aged 32, not to leave the country after the family of the deceased filed a formal complaint and blamed the tourist for the death of their mother. 

The tourist is now being questioned by the police. 

The Brit woman maintains that the touch was unintentional

The incident took place in Sharjah in a hotel in the Al Tawoun area. A police spokesperson told a local newspaper that they have reviewed the CCTV footage from the time of the incident.
