President Sheikh Mohamed establishes new National Anti Narcotics Authority

President Sheikh Mohamed issued a decree establishing a National Anti Narcotics Authority in the UAE. The agency has the responsibility of combating drug trafficking and smuggling, as well as overseeing the rehabilitation and treatment of addicts. The authority, chaired by Sheikh Zayed bin Hamad bin Hamdan Al Nahyan, will also create and implement strategies addressing narcotics and related crimes. Liaising with other agencies to tackle the sale of illegal drugs will also be a remit of the authority, state news agency Wam reported on Sunday. "The National Anti-Narcotics Authority will undertake a comprehensive set of vital mandates, reflecting the UAE's strategic vision to bolster community security, combat various drug-related crimes, and ensure an effective legislative and operational environment to curb this phenomenon," Wam said. "A key mandate includes tackling drug trafficking by tracking and dismantling smuggling and distribution networks, co-ordinating with security and judicial authorities to ensure offenders are brought to justice in accordance with the nation's laws." The body, which is an independent federal entity affiliated to the UAE Cabinet, will work closely with other national agencies to prevent illegal drugs being smuggled into or leaving the country. Another facet of the authority's remit will be dealing with chemicals used for non-medical purposes. This involves developing licensing mechanisms, trading and storage conditions and customs clearance procedures to ensure the lawful use of chemicals and preventing their misuse in illegal activities.

Dubai arrests 2 men for channelling illegal funds via digital wallets

Two men have been arrested in Dubai for duping several people into using their bank accounts or digital wallets to channel funds obtained through online fraud. Investigation by Dubai Police's Anti-Fraud Centre revealed that the men used social media to target and convince individuals into sharing their banking details or open new accounts or digital wallets for small amounts. The men then used these accounts to channel the illegal funds to deceive the authorities by not leaving a money trail. Following their arrests, the officers confiscated several electronic devices and payment cards associated with the fraudulent accounts, and started legal proceedings against the criminals. Dubai Police, which released details as part of its ongoing awareness campaign "Be Aware of Fraud", urged the public to avoid engaging with suspicious banking offers or sharing personal details with unofficial sources. They also highlighted that such actions could unintentionally implicate individuals as accomplices in the crime, resulting in serious legal consequences. The authority called on the public to promptly report suspicious financial activities through the "eCrime" platform or the Dubai Police smart app.

Abu Dhabi: Employee wins Dh50,930 in unpaid wages, along with return flight ticket

The Abu Dhabi Labour Court has ruled a case in favour of an employee involving unpaid salaries, dismissal without proper notice, and other employment-related claims. The First Instance Court ordered the employer to pay the worker Dh50,930, along with Dh1,500 for a return flight ticket to his home country and an experience certificate. In the court case, the employee claimed that his employer failed to pay his salary from October 1, 2024, until the end of his employment on April 5, 2025. He also requested compensation for unfair dismissal, lack of notice, unused annual leave, and a return flight to his home country. The employer denied these claims and, in a counterclaim, demanded Dh12,200, stating the employee had collected payments for invoices but failed to hand over the money. The court appointed an accounting expert to verify the claims. Based on the evidence and testimonies, the court ruled: Delayed salaries: The employee was awarded Dh43,167 for unpaid wages between October 1, 2024, and April 5, 2025. Notice period compensation: The court found the termination violated UAE labour law and awarded Dh7,000 as compensation for lack of notice. Annual leave: The employee was awarded Dh770 for unused leave. Travel ticket: The court granted Dh1,500 or the cost of a one-way economy-class ticket to the employee's home country, unless he joins another employer. Experience certificate: The court instructed the employer to provide the worker with a certificate of experience. The court rejected the request for 12 per cent interest on the unpaid amount due to the absence of a prior agreement and ruled there was no evidence of unfair dismissal caused by a complaint or legal action. In the employer's counterclaim, the court ruled in favour of the company, ordering the employee to pay Dh12,200 after accepting sworn testimony that he had collected payments and failed to hand them over. In the final judgement, the court ruled that the employer must pay the worker Dh50,930, Dh1,500 for a return travel ticket and also an experience certificate. Each party to bear their own legal costs related to their claims.
