UAE: Jail term of driver who ran over and killed cyclist revoked
(AFP)
The cyclist had jumped a red light, and the motorist, who crossed a yellow signal, was unable to stop in time.
A French national and a UAE resident, who was earlier sentenced to a month's jail term for causing a cyclist's death when the victim had jumped a red light, has had his imprisonment revoked and is ordered to pay a fine by the Dubai Court of Appeals.
The convict, 50, denied wrongful death and damaging property charges at the Dubai Traffic Court.
He was convicted in April and sentenced to a month's jail term and also ordered to pay a Dh10,000 fine.
