An airline employee was reportedly sacked from his job in Dubai after he stole AED463 ($126) worth of goods and cash from his employer, which included AED62 taken from charity envelope inside one of the aircraft.
Dubai Court of First Instance was told how a 32-year-old Filipino supply assistant, who was employed to restock Emirates planes on the ground, took a total of 12 perfumes, charity money, two packs of playing cards, sunglasses, a wallet and an airline badge, according to a report in 7Days newspaper.
The man was caught on September 19 with the perfume hidden in his belt, after security had been informed that the man was stealing.
“I was in the job for four years and they caught me with three mini perfumes. I wanted to send them to my family in my home country,” the defendant told police during the investigation.
A search of the man’s flat uncovered a more goods.
“He claimed that he stole some mini perfume before too. We found two packs of playing cards, with the Emirates airline logo, inside his house and he even confessed that he stole Dhs62 from a charity envelope which was inside a plane,” an Emirati policeman said in court records.
The judge will give his verdict in the case next month.
