Criminal Lawyers In Dubai
Criminal Law is the field relevant to illegal activity, with a stronger emphasis on punitive and rehabilitative verdicts instead of solely compensatory resolutions. In the UAE and Dubai, Criminal Law is part of the federal system based on Islamic Sharia law. In severe cases, the physical or death penalty may be used as a deterrent against criminal behaviour. To determine criminal charges, one must prove actus reus (guilty act) and men’s rea (guilty mind); to prosecute a criminal charge, there must be evidence of both criminal action and criminal intent.
