UAE President honours judge who waived Dhs60,000 fine on an Afghan family
UAE President His Highness Sheikh Mohamed Bin Zayed Al Nahyan on Tuesday honoured judge Hamid Al Ali of the Umm Al Quwain Federal Court of First Instance who cancelled a Dh60,000 fine for an Afghani overstayer. Sheikh Mohamed said that what the judge did represents the traits and culture of the Emirati people. Judge Al Ali recalled this story after many years. He said that once he had a case of an Afghani overstayer who failed to renew residency visas for himself, his wife, and their four children over five years due to personal circumstances. When Al Ali asked about the reason the man said that his Emirati sponsor was diagnosed with cancer and he had to stay beside him in hospital and did not think about his legal status. Al Ali said that during the hearing, he saw the man's young son standing beside him and asked for his name, to be surprised that his name was Zayed. Al Ali then removed the UAE flag scarf from around his shoulders and wrapped the child's shoulders with it saying 'Zayed is not fined but honoured' before he cancelled the penalties.

UAE judge cancels Dh60,000 fine for visa violator; honoured by President Sheikh Mohamed
A judge's act of kindness was recently praised by UAE President Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan during an honouring ceremony, according to local media. Judge Hamid Al Ali of the Umm Al Quwain Federal Court of First Instance cancelled a Dh60,000 fine imposed on a Pakistani man who had failed to renew residency visas for himself, his wife, and their four children over five years. The case, as reported by Emarat Al Youm, involved a father who had unknowingly overstayed due to personal circumstances. He explained in court that he had been caring for his Emirati sponsor, who was diagnosed with cancer, and lost track of his own legal status during that time. The case took a remarkable turn when it coincided with Zayed Humanitarian Work Day, a national occasion honouring the legacy of the UAE's founding father through acts of kindness. During the hearing, Judge Al Ali shared that he noticed the man's young son, dressed in a kandura, standing beside him and asked for his name. The boy replied softly: 'Zayed.' Struck by the coincidence, the judge removed the UAE flag scarf from around his shoulders and draped it over the child. 'Zayed is not fined. Zayed is honoured,' he said, before formally cancelling the penalties.
