Dubai Police Arrest Eight Suspects in Fraudulent Driving Licence Scheme

Dubai Police announced the arrest of eight individuals implicated in a coordinated scam that deceived members of the public through the issuance of counterfeit international driving licences.

According to law enforcement authorities, the criminal ring operated by setting up deceptive advertisements and targeting residents and visitors seeking expedited permits. The syndicate collected payments under the false pretense that the documents were fully certified and legally recognized by transport regulators.

Following detailed investigations and surveillance operations, specialized law enforcement teams tracked down the syndicate members and executed coordinated raids across their operating hubs. Officers confiscated electronic devices, printing equipment, and forged documents utilized in the deceptive enterprise.

Dubai Police reaffirmed their continuous efforts to combat cyber-enabled fraud and warned community members against dealing with unauthorized entities offering official paperwork or licensing services outside of verified legal frameworks. The suspects have been referred to relevant legal authorities for formal prosecution.
