In a joint effort to combat covert scam operations, the Dubai Police and Bureau of National Investigations (BNI) have teamed up, resulting in the arrest of 300 Ghanaian nationals among a larger group of individuals from various countries.
The crackdown targeted specific hot spots known for fraudulent activities, leading to the apprehension of 51 Chinese nationals and over 1000 individuals from Africa and Pakistan.
The arrested individuals were allegedly involved in a range of fraudulent schemes, prompting authorities to take swift action to dismantle the operations.
While Chinese nationals face the prospect of a 10-year prison sentence for their involvement, others holding Emirate IDs will be held for one month before release.
However, those without any form of identification have been swiftly deported from the country.
Among the seized materials are laptops, passports, and IDs, all of which will be destroyed as part of the crackdown on fraudulent activities.
Additionally, recidivists who are caught engaging in similar schemes in the future will face a harsh penalty of up to 20 years in prison.
The arrests serve as a stark reminder of the consequences of involvement in fraudulent schemes, both for individuals and the reputation of the country as a whole.
