Indian couple wins case against maid

Dubai, April 5 (UNI) An Indian couple, accused by their maid of cheating, has won the case in a Dubai court.

The couple was charged with breach of trust for taking a car, worth Dhs397,000 (Rs 4.66 million), after a raffle ticket on their maid's name came out in a draw during the 2004 Dubai Shopping Festival.

The 58-year-old investor and his wife said they had previously had terrible luck so they decided to buy a ticket on their maid's name.

The couple gave her Dhs81,000 (Rs 9.5 lakh) from the money as her share of the prize and she left the country.

However, the maid returned to Dubai last year and complained she had been cheated out of her prize, but the court ruled against her.
