The top prize of Dh10 million was won in last night’s Mahzooz draw after someone matched all five numbers.

The as-yet-unidentified individual won the jackpot after picking the numbers 16, 18, 37, 38 and 40.

This was the third time in the last month that someone has walked away with the top prize.

There were more than a thousand other winners of smaller prizes totalling more than Dh1.6 million.

The second prize of Dh1 million, for matching four numbers, was shared between 34 winners who took home just under Dh35,000 each.

There were also three winners of the weekly raffle draw who each won Dh100,000.

They were named as Joel from the Philippines, Surour from the UAE and Faisal from India.

Mahzooz has also launched a summer promotion in which participants can win one kilogram of gold in the final draw in July.

To take part in the event, entrants are required to purchase a Dh35 bottle of water, which comes with a ticket.

People can take part by registering at www.mahzooz.ae

Key findings of Jenkins report
  • Founder of the Muslim Brotherhood, Hassan al Banna, "accepted the political utility of violence"
  • Views of key Muslim Brotherhood ideologue, Sayyid Qutb, have “consistently been understood” as permitting “the use of extreme violence in the pursuit of the perfect Islamic society” and “never been institutionally disowned” by the movement.
  • Muslim Brotherhood at all levels has repeatedly defended Hamas attacks against Israel, including the use of suicide bombers and the killing of civilians.
  • Laying out the report in the House of Commons, David Cameron told MPs: "The main findings of the review support the conclusion that membership of, association with, or influence by the Muslim Brotherhood should be considered as a possible indicator of extremism."
