What can happen to you in Dubai if you get drunk and get in a fight with somebody?

My friend got arrested by police at a public park. He was drunk and started a fight over there and they signed him a warning letter and left him.

That day itself he got a message from Dubai police "Thank you for using Dubai Police services, the criminal case has been successfully registered. Ref........"

Is it a problem for him?

Kindly reply.

If no accusation is brought against him by the Public Prosecution, he has no legal recourse.

Rather, he has been warned legally, and if he is arrested, he will be in a state of “recidivism” and may be punished criminally.

Thank you for reaching out regarding your friend's situation.

Receiving a message from Dubai Police indicating that a criminal case has been registered is a serious matter.

Despite being released with a warning, your friend should not ignore this notice, as it suggests that the incident has been formally documented.

It is crucial to address this promptly to understand the implications and take necessary steps to resolve any potential legal issues.

I can provide your friend with expert legal advice and representation to navigate this situation effectively.

Please ask your friend to reach out to me directly via WhatsApp or phone to discuss the case further.

Alternatively, they can email me. Immediate legal guidance is essential in such cases to ensure the best possible outcome.
