officers in Bur Dubai police station questioned the woman, whose identity is unknown.

"The British woman was wearing a very low top and most of her legs were on display," the Daily Mail quoted a source within Dubai police as saying.

"The Arabic woman stopped to criticise her and that's when she stripped off. That's when things started to get out of hand.

"We ended up questioning both women after receiving a call from the mall security staff," added the source. (ANI)
