ABU DHABI // A woman who put her car on sale on classifieds website Dubizzle.com had it stolen by a potential buyer, a court heard on Tuesday.
The Emirati woman said she posted an advert online and agreed to meet a potential buyer in Khalifa City A.
He then asked to take it for a test drive and never returned.
She called police and a general warrant was issued for the man’s arrest.
“The strange thing is he was issued a number of face-to-face fines while the car was with him, yet none of the policemen noticed there was a warrant issued on it,” she told the appeals court.
The man was eventually caught and the car was returned her.
However, the woman told the appeals court that she was unhappy with the first court’s ruling, which was not disclosed during the hearing.
She said the man had run up a large number of violations, which could cost her a large amount of money.
The case was adjourned for the accused to attend.
