Operation Pink Diamond: Dubai Police foil $25m diamond heist

Image: Dubai Media Office The investigation revealed that the gang had been plotting the heist for over a year, targeting a diamond certified by a leading gemological institute with a unique purity rating — so rare that there is only a 0.01 per cent chance of finding another like it. The criminal scheme The suspects, all of Asian nationality, devised a sophisticated plan to deceive the diamond's owner, a jeweller, by posing as wealthy buyers interested in purchasing the gem. They rented luxury cars, held meetings at upscale hotels, and even hired a renowned diamond expert to authenticate the stone, creating the illusion of credibility and legitimacy. Their ultimate goal was to persuade the merchant to move the diamond out of his secure shop. Once the diamond was brought to a villa under the pretext of meeting the 'buyer', the gang attempted to seize it. Police foil the plot Dubai Police CID teams leveraged advanced technology to track and identify the three suspects, who initially lived together but dispersed to different locations after the heist. A specialised task force raided their locations simultaneously, apprehending the suspects and recovering the diamond before it could leave Dubai, hidden in a small refrigerator destined for an Asian country. The recovered pink diamond is classified as 'Fancy Intense', weighing 21.25 carats, with exceptional clarity, symmetry, and polish, rated excellent. Its extraordinary value and rarity made it a prime target, prompting the gang's elaborate year-long planning. Merchant praises police response The diamond's owner expressed admiration for the Dubai Police's swift and professional action. He recounted calling 999 immediately after the theft, and noted: 'Multiple patrols arrived within minutes, began the investigation, and offered constant reassurance. To my surprise, the very next morning, they called to say the suspects had been arrested and the diamond recovered.' Operating in Dubai since 2005, the merchant admitted being caught off guard by the scheme, emphasizing the importance of adhering to the emirate's safety guidelines for the diamond trade: 'Dubai has become a safe global centre for diamond trade. It's important we uphold the standards that make that possible.' 'Operation Pink Diamond' not only recovered one of the world's rarest gemstones but also reinforced Dubai's reputation as a secure hub for high-value commodities. The operation highlights the city's law enforcement capabilities and the proactive measures it takes to protect investors and merchants in the luxury trade sector.

UAE retail sector continues to attract global players

Retail remains one of the key pillar of the UAE economy, with the sector reaching $145.3 billion last year. According to projections, the market is estimated to expand at a compound annual growth of more than 5 per cent through 2033. In Dubai, retail trade remains the largest sector in the economy, accounting for 23% of GDP, and grew by 4.5% year-on-year in Q1 2025. 'The UAE is an incredibly dynamic market when it comes to fashion. This is a place where global influences meet strong local identity, creating space for street fashion brands to really stand out,' said Shubham Gupta, Founder of Bonkers Corner, a popular unisex streetwear brand in India, which recently launched its e-commerce platform in the UAE. This strategic move marks Bonkers Corner's official entry into the Middle East after dominating the streetwear fashion genre in India — with over 15 physical stores and a strong online presence. 'We have witnessed a significantly growing popularity for bold apparel with personalized style in the UAE,' Gupta said. 'Launching a dedicated platform like Bonkers Corner for the region was the natural next step. This allows us to not only serve our growing community better but also mirror their preference for a unique blend of creativity, culture, and fashion-forward mindset.' Streetwear in the UAE is evolving at an accelerated pace. The blend of diverse cultural influences here means styles shift quickly, but that's an environment where agile brands can excel, Gupta said. 'Over the next three–five years, I see the sector becoming even more experience-driven, where brands will need to go beyond selling products to creating touchpoints, events, collaborations, and content that build strong emotional connections with their audience. It's not just about fashion anymore; it's about identity and belonging,' he added. Competition from global brands is inevitable, but it's also a positive sign- it means the market is thriving and that consumers are open to experimenting. ' Our ability to create limited runs, bold drops, and pop-culture-inspired collections gives us the agility that many bigger brands lack,' Gupta said. Bonkers Corner is exploring an omnichannel approach that blends the convenience of ecommerce with the immersive experience of retail. 'Pop-ups, experiential stores, and strategic tie-ups with leading malls will allow customers to engage with the brand on a sensory level,' Gupta said.
