Three traders were referred to the Dubai Criminal Court for offering Dh250,000 bribe to a Dubai Municipality officer.
According to Dubai Public Prosecution, the accused, one Indian and two Iranian, asked the officer to allocate 14 parking spaces for their trucks in the Al Aweer Fruits and Vegetable Market, which is against the system.
The two traders approached a third person who was a friend of the Indian merchant to be the mediator between them and the Dubai Municipality officer.
The Public Prosecution charged the third person with mediation in bribery.
