SHARJAH // Interpol has been asked to help arrest and extradite a man suspected of murdering an Emirati woman.
Her body was found by the side of the road in Sharjah last week.
Interpol was contacted following tip-offs that the suspect, the victim’s driver, had left the UAE, Rashid Ali Al Omran, Attorney General of Sharjah Prosecution, told, Al Ittihad, the Arabic language sister newspaper of The National.
He is believed to have returned to his home country, India. A warrant has been issued for his arrest and extradition according to international laws.
The body of Emirati H B, 45, from Ras Al Khaimah, was found on Al Maleha Road near Al Badeah bridge in Sharjah Industrial Area 18 in the early hours of November 15.
Police are investigating whether she was murdered in her home emirate or Sharjah.
Forensics teams and CID officers took detailed photos of the area where her body was found and took fingerprints from the victim to help determine the cause of her death.
The public prosecutor ordered the body be taken to a police forensic lab for further investigation.

How to wear a kandura
Dos
- Wear the right fabric for the right season and occasion
- Always ask for the dress code if you don’t know
- Wear a white kandura, white ghutra / shemagh (headwear) and black shoes for work
- Wear 100 per cent cotton under the kandura as most fabrics are polyester
Don’ts
- Wear hamdania for work, always wear a ghutra and agal
- Buy a kandura only based on how it feels; ask questions about the fabric and understand what you are buying
