DUBAI // The Criminal Court has dismissed a case against an airline engineer accused of stealing an iPad he found left on a plane.
The Indian businessman lost the device during a one-day trip to Dubai, but when he reported the loss to the airline he was told it had not been handed it in.
However, the businessman's wife used the device's iCloud application to discover that the airline employee BS, a Filipino, had used the iPad to log into his Facebook account. She then called the airline to report the matter.
The businessman waived his right to pursue the case.

How to come clean about financial infidelity
- Be honest and transparent: It is always better to own up than be found out. Tell your partner everything they want to know. Show remorse. Inform them of the extent of the situation so they know what they are dealing with.
- Work on yourself: Be honest with yourself and your partner and figure out why you did it. Don’t be ashamed to ask for professional help.
- Give it time: Like any breach of trust, it requires time to rebuild. So be consistent, communicate often and be patient with your partner and yourself.
- Discuss your financial situation regularly: Ensure your spouse is involved in financial matters and decisions. Your ability to consistently follow through with what you say you are going to do when it comes to money can make all the difference in your partner’s willingness to trust you again.
- Work on a plan to resolve the problem together: If there is a lot of debt, for example, create a budget and financial plan together and ensure your partner is fully informed, involved and supported.
