Former Deyaar CEO's lawyer seeks transfer of case to criminal court

The lawyer of Deyaar's former CEO has requested that his client's case be transferred from the Dubai Misdemeanours Court to the Dubai Criminal Court of First Instance.

"My 43-year-old American client, Z.S., Deyaar's former CEO, is being prosecuted along [with] eight other suspects before the Dubai Misdemeanours Court and concurrently he is being prosecuted over the same matter in the Dubai Court of First Instance.

"I ask the court to detach him individually and refer him to the criminal court where he is currently being prosecuted in another case of alleged financial irregularities but the same subject," lawyer Ali Abdullah Al Shamsi argued when he addressed Presiding Judge Rifaat Mahmoud Tulba at the Dubai Misdemeanours Court.
