Rather than spend the money lavishly, the Sharjah resident plans to use her winnings mindfully. 'I want to do something good with part of the money as a way of giving thanks,' she said.

'Sometimes just showing up or taking that first step can make all the difference.' Though she hasn't yet told her family, she shared the news with her best friend. 'She's always been by my side. I plan to do something special for her if I ever win the grand prize.'

e-biker dies in Dubai accident, driver ordered to pay blood money and Dhs10,000 fine
Mohammed Yaseen, Staff Reporter Dubai Misdemeanour Court fined a vehicle driver Dhs10,000 and suspended his licence for six months from the date of the ruling for causing the death of an electric bike rider on Marsa Drive Street. Court also ordered the driver to pay Dhs200,000 in full blood money (diyah) to the heirs of the electric bike rider. The incident dates back to January when Dubai Police received a report of a run-over accident in the Marsa Drive area. A policeman testified that he rushed to the scene and found the victim lying lifeless on the ground next to his electric bike, along with the driver of the vehicle responsible for the accident. The policeman added that after inspection, it was determined that the vehicle driver was responsible for the accident as he entered the road without ensuring it was clear, colliding with the electric bike rider, who was in the correct lane. This was affirmed through an examination of the accident site and CCTV footage, the policeman added. On being questioned, the suspect denied causing the victim's death, claiming that the victim was riding his electric bike at high speed and was not wearing reflective clothing, making it difficult to spot him. The court found the suspect's fault proved, as he failed to exercise caution while driving, adding that by entering the road without ensuring it was clear, he collided with the electric bike, which was in its correct lane, causing severe injuries to the rider which led to his death.
