The Dubai Criminal Court sentenced an Asian woman to 3 months in jail to be followed by deportation over assaulting a female police officer while she was on duty.
In the incident that dates back to last May, the convict, 31, entered a police station and spoke to the duty officer in her Asian language, which he does not know.
The officer contacted the operations to provide an interpreter over the phone, so he spoke to her.
The convict told the interpreter that she wanted to work in the police and wanted them to hire her.
According to the officer’s testimony in the investigations, he told the convict that she should apply for a job via specific platforms and asked her to leave, but she refused.
The officer then asked a female police officer to take her (convict) outside the police station.
