A worker has been accused of stealing cigarettes and Red Bull energy drinks worth hundreds of thousands of dirhams.
Dubai Criminal Court was told the products, owned by the UAE Federal Tax Authority, were stolen from a warehouse in Ras Al Khor.
The court heard the Pakistani man, 33, and another defendant – who remains at large – broke into the building on June 27.
“We found fingerprints at the crime scene,” an Emirati policeman said. Officers arrested the man days later.
Judges were told 30 boxes containing Marlboro and Royal cigarettes and 15 boxes of Red Bull energy drinks worth Dh214,000 were stolen
The defendant was charged with armed robbery, which he denied in court.
A verdict will be issued on October 18.

Haircare resolutions 2021
From Beirut and Amman to London and now Dubai, hairstylist George Massoud has seen the same mistakes made by customers all over the world. In the chair or at-home hair care, here are the resolutions he wishes his customers would make for the year ahead.
1. 'I will seek consultation from professionals'
You may know what you want, but are you sure it’s going to suit you? Haircare professionals can tell you what will work best with your skin tone, hair texture and lifestyle.
2. 'I will tell my hairdresser when I’m not happy'
Massoud says it’s better to offer constructive criticism to work on in the future. Your hairdresser will learn, and you may discover how to communicate exactly what you want more effectively the next time.
3. ‘I will treat my hair better out of the chair’
Damage control is a big part of most hairstylists’ work right now, but it can be avoided. Steer clear of over-colouring at home, try and pursue one hair brand at a time and never, ever use a straightener on still drying hair, pleads Massoud.

So what is Spicy Chickenjoy?
Just as McDonald’s has the Big Mac, Jollibee has Spicy Chickenjoy – a piece of fried chicken that’s crispy and spicy on the outside and comes with a side of spaghetti, all covered in tomato sauce and topped with sausage slices and ground beef. It sounds like a recipe that a child would come up with, but perhaps that’s the point – a flavourbomb combination of cheap comfort foods. Chickenjoy is Jollibee’s best-selling product in every country in which it has a presence.
