Three men who travelled to Dubai on a visit visa had allegedly robbed a villa of valuables worth AED 466,000.
The Dubai Court of First Instance heard the case of a 51-year-old housewife from Switzerland who shared that when their daughter from the United Kingdom visited them, they decided to have dinner outside their home. When they returned before midnight, they saw the place upside down with many of her valuables already stolen.

“We returned before midnight and I saw chaos in the bedroom. My jewellery and watches were stolen. They were worth Dh455,600,” said the woman.
The woman immediately called Dubai Police to report the incident and caught the gang members when they attempted to sell the necklaces at a jewellery shop.
