Authorities in Dubai have released 86 prisoners involved in rental disputes as a humanitarian gesture ahead of Eid Al Fitr. The decision came after outstanding financial claims totaling over Dh6.8 million were settled, allowing the detainees to reunite with their families.
Dubai’s leadership continues to emphasize compassion and social responsibility, ensuring that individuals facing financial difficulties receive support instead of prolonged imprisonment. This initiative aligns with the emirate’s ongoing commitment to justice reform and rehabilitation.
Authorities attested that the release was made possible by the settlement of rental debts, which was made possible by collaboration between the courts, law enforcement, and nonprofit organisations. Such initiatives demonstrate Dubai’s commitment to promoting peace and supporting its citizens who are having difficulties.
This widespread release, which reinforces a culture of second chances and highlights Dubai’s progressive legal approach in resolving financial disputes, comes after similar initiatives during past festive seasons.
