Emirati man killed and another injured in row over money



DUBAI // An Emirati man was killed and another injured in an argument over money in Al Muraqabbat, Deira, a police source has said.

The incident took place in the early hours of Sunday morning and a brother of the suspect called police during the row, saying that the pair got into a dispute over a motorcycle.

The suspect had sold a bike worth no more than Dh10,000 to the now deceased man but had not received the full amount, said the source.

He added that, according to the suspect’s brother, the deceased man had a knife on him and stabbed the suspect first.

The suspect, in turn, took the knife and fatally stabbed the Emirati man in the abdomen.

The suspect sustained minor injuries, while the other man died on the way to hospital. Both were taken there by the suspect’s brother.

The two had been friends for a while, said the police source, adding that the case has been transferred to public prosecution.

You may remember …

Robbie Keane (Atletico de Kolkata) The Irish striker is, along with his former Spurs teammate Dimitar Berbatov, the headline figure in this season’s ISL, having joined defending champions ATK. His grand entrance after arrival from Major League Soccer in the US will be delayed by three games, though, due to a knee injury.

Dimitar Berbatov (Kerala Blasters) Word has it that Rene Meulensteen, the Kerala manager, plans to deploy his Bulgarian star in central midfield. The idea of Berbatov as an all-action, box-to-box midfielder, might jar with Spurs and Manchester United supporters, who more likely recall an always-languid, often-lazy striker.

Wes Brown (Kerala Blasters) Revived his playing career last season to help out at Blackburn Rovers, where he was also a coach. Since then, the 23-cap England centre back, who is now 38, has been reunited with the former Manchester United assistant coach Meulensteen, after signing for Kerala.

Andre Bikey (Jamshedpur) The Cameroonian defender is onto the 17th club of a career has taken him to Spain, Portugal, Russia, the UK, Greece, and now India. He is still only 32, so there is plenty of time to add to that tally, too. Scored goals against Liverpool and Chelsea during his time with Reading in England.

Emiliano Alfaro (Pune City) The Uruguayan striker has played for Liverpool – the Montevideo one, rather than the better-known side in England – and Lazio in Italy. He was prolific for a season at Al Wasl in the Arabian Gulf League in 2012/13. He returned for one season with Fujairah, whom he left to join Pune.
