Police station cleaner admits theft from officer



A police station cleaner has pleaded guilty to stealing Dh1,900 from a female officer’s purse.

Dubai Criminal Court heard how the Indian defendant, 26, took the cash after the policewoman left the item at work on May 27.

After she reporting the money missing, officers checked the station’s CCTV cameras and identified the male suspect.

“I left it [the purse] on the desk with cash inside and when I returned in the evening I could not find the cash,” the policewoman said.

During police questioning, the man admitted one charge of theft. A verdict will be given on July 30.

Pupils in Abu Dhabi are learning the importance of being active, eating well and leading a healthy lifestyle now and throughout adulthood, thanks to a newly launched programme 'Healthy Lifestyle'.

As part of the Healthy Lifestyle programme, specially trained coaches from City Football Schools, along with Healthpoint physicians have visited schools throughout Abu Dhabi to give fun and interactive lessons on working out regularly, making the right food choices, getting enough sleep and staying hydrated, just like their favourite footballers.

Organised by Manchester City FC and Healthpoint, Manchester City FC’s regional healthcare partner and part of Mubadala’s healthcare network, the ‘Healthy Lifestyle’ programme will visit 15 schools, meeting around 1,000 youngsters over the next five months.

Designed to give pupils all the information they need to improve their diet and fitness habits at home, at school and as they grow up, coaches from City Football Schools will work alongside teachers to lead the youngsters through a series of fun, creative and educational classes as well as activities, including playing football and other games.

Dr Mai Ahmed Al Jaber, head of public health at Healthpoint, said: “The programme has different aspects - diet, exercise, sleep and mental well-being. By having a focus on each of those and delivering information in a way that children can absorb easily it can help to address childhood obesity."
