A young woman who was stabbed to death in Sharjah was named as Lubna Mansour, an engineering graduate from Jordan.
The married expat died following an attack on Friday afternoon.
Sharjah Police said a suspect was arrested within two hours of the killing. He faces murder charges and a potential death penalty if convicted.
Police, who did not name Mansour or her attacker, did not comment on or confirm Jordanian media reports that claimed her husband was the attacker.
Mansour was named by her family, who posted tributes and her picture on social media.
Lyaz Mansour, the victim's sister, wrote: "God bless you my love, a piece of my heart has left me. You are in the best place. I love you Lubna."
Her picture was widely shared on Twitter, where her name was trending and where hundreds of tributes were left. Mansour was a Jordan University of Science and Technology (Just) graduate.
Suspect fled with victim's body in car
In a statement, Sharjah Police said the suspect confronted the victim as she got into her car near her home.
The woman's mother raised the alarm, telling police her daughter had been kidnapped.
The attacker stabbed her multiple times before fleeing in her car, with her body inside the vehicle.
Col Faisal bin Nassar, head of Sharjah Police CID, said CCTV footage showed the man driving off in the victim's car. Officers were able to trace the vehicle after it was abandoned by her attacker. Her body was found inside.
He did not release the suspect's age or nationality.
Police said the man admitted killing the woman due to what he said was a "personal dispute".
Investigations are continuing.
What is Folia?
Prince Khaled bin Alwaleed bin Talal's new plant-based menu will launch at Four Seasons hotels in Dubai this November. A desire to cater to people looking for clean, healthy meals beyond green salad is what inspired Prince Khaled and American celebrity chef Matthew Kenney to create Folia. The word means "from the leaves" in Latin, and the exclusive menu offers fine plant-based cuisine across Four Seasons properties in Los Angeles, Bahrain and, soon, Dubai.
Kenney specialises in vegan cuisine and is the founder of Plant Food Wine and 20 other restaurants worldwide. "I’ve always appreciated Matthew’s work," says the Saudi royal. "He has a singular culinary talent and his approach to plant-based dining is prescient and unrivalled. I was a fan of his long before we established our professional relationship."
Folia first launched at The Four Seasons Hotel Los Angeles at Beverly Hills in July 2018. It is available at the poolside Cabana Restaurant and for in-room dining across the property, as well as in its private event space. The food is vibrant and colourful, full of fresh dishes such as the hearts of palm ceviche with California fruit, vegetables and edible flowers; green hearb tacos filled with roasted squash and king oyster barbacoa; and a savoury coconut cream pie with macadamia crust.
In March 2019, the Folia menu reached Gulf shores, as it was introduced at the Four Seasons Hotel Bahrain Bay, where it is served at the Bay View Lounge. Next, on Tuesday, November 1 – also known as World Vegan Day – it will come to the UAE, to the Four Seasons Resort Dubai at Jumeirah Beach and the Four Seasons DIFC, both properties Prince Khaled has spent "considerable time at and love".
There are also plans to take Folia to several more locations throughout the Middle East and Europe.
While health-conscious diners will be attracted to the concept, Prince Khaled is careful to stress Folia is "not meant for a specific subset of customers. It is meant for everyone who wants a culinary experience without the negative impact that eating out so often comes with."
