Finger flasher to be jailed and deported
Dubai: A pilot who flashed his middle finger at a policeman in an instance of road rage will spend a month in jail, a court ruled on Monday. He will be deported after serving his term.
The Dubai Public Prosecution had charged the 37-year-old Canadian pilot, identified as K.V., with indecently gesturing in public.
The Dubai Court of First Instance heard that the pilot flashed his middle finger to a 29-year-old UAE national policeman, identified as S.S. in one of the streets of Dubai in an act of road rage.
In his police statement, he denied the charges and claimed he flashed at the victim wanting to say 'easy easy'. During the court hearings, the accused denied the charges, but one of the witnesses told the judge he saw the Canadian flashing his middle finger.
Sources informed Gulf News the accused has already appealed to the appeal's court that will look into the case soon.
Be careful with the road rage out there, especially with the unmarked cars now... I notice it was a UAE National policeman. The driver must have been so unlucky to have been stopped by the only local copper out on the streets
