A Syrian man has been acquitted of involvement in the murder of a
British woman after his lawyer told a Dubai Appeal Court his client was
“groundlessly and maliciously dragged into the case”.
The court
on Wednesday overturned a life sentence given to 26-year-old, M.M., and
acquitted him of aiding and abetting another man, M.K., in killing the
woman and stealing her jewellery.
The appellate court cleared
M.M. of involvement in the murder after his lawyer Saeed Al Gailani
argued that the main perpetrator falsely and maliciously blamed the
26-year-old.

been in a relationship with M.K. and had taken his passport because he
was “satisfying her high libido”.

before the Appeal Court.

aiding and abetting M.K. in the premeditated murder.

Meanwhile M.M. was convicted of abetting and instigating M.K. to commit the murder.

also alleged that my client provided him with a pistol, gloves and a
mask to commit the crime. None of the aforementioned items were ever
found. The murderer malevolently dragged my client into the case because

Al Gailani.

jewellery.
