Abu Dhabi street lawA traffic outrage led to a murder on one ofAbu Dhabicity road. The Abu Dhabi Public Prosecution referred to Emirati brothers to the Criminal Court on charges of premeditated murder and vandalism.

The story began when the two defendants (H. S. 24 years and M. S. 24 years) perused the Emirati victim (M. A. 52 years) because of not giving way on the road. The forensic medicine report said the victim sustained many serious bone fractures in different parts of his body ad well as a serious bleeding in skull that led to his death.

Investigations by the Public Prosecution concluded that a traffic outrage when the victim did not give way to the defendants led them to pursue him and collide with his car many times before taking over and blocking his way. They forced him to leave his car and a fight started despite his old age.

When the police reached the place, the victim was still alive but in a very bad situation due to his injuries. He managed to tell police that the two defendants followed him, collided with his car many times, and force him to stop and leave car. He also said both of them beat him with a wooden stick.

The victim was taken to hospital but he succumbed to his injuries once there.

An official from the office of the Attorney General of Abu Dhabi said that- after investigation and hearing the witnesses and police, it was evident for the prosecutors the two defendant killed the victim and damaged his car intentionally.

The official confirmed the defendants took over the victim’s car and blocked his way to force him to stop on the hard shoulder. When the victim left his car, they followed and beat him with a solid object causing injuries that led to his death. The defendants did not respect his old age as if their only intention to teach him who is the stronger, he said.

The official said no one is allowed to protect his right by himself. Legal authorities can assume the role of law enforcing, dispute settlement and violator punishment.

Any person who try to defend his rights by himself will be liable to law and the Public Prosecution will demand the harshest penalties for those who do so, he said.

The UAE Federal Law No.35 of 1992 envisages many protective measures under the law. What the rulers practice is exactly the opposite of what they preach; making the UAE Constitution itself becomes a solemn mockery! Just imagine a situation when the “protector” beheads the distressed who approach for protection! Learn about corrupt practices in UAE!’
