The Ras Al Khaimah (RAK) Misdemeanour Court has sentenced a young woman to two months in jail for siphoning off Dh46,500 from a youth.
Later, the RAK Civil Court ordered her to pay back Dh46,500.
Court records revealed that the case unfolded when the defendant received Dh51,000 from the plaintiff and refused to part with the sum.
She kept the money herself and denied receiving the sum.
“I tried several times to end the dispute in an amicable manner. In fact, we had reached a settlement. A monthly instalment of Dh1,500 was mutually agreed upon,” the complainant said.
