 Rawan Bin Hussain sentenced in Dubai for assault and intoxication.

The case of Rawan Bin Hussain gained attention again after she was found guilty of abusing a police officer and being detained in Dubai while intoxicated. She was sentenced to six months in prison, fined, and expelled from the country.

Following the conclusion of the investigations, the Dubai Criminal Court ruled that Rawan Bin Hussain should be imprisoned for six months and fined twenty thousand dirhams. She would also be deported from the country upon completing her term.

“The Dubai Criminal Court sentenced Ms. (R.H.), a Gulf national, to six months in prison for the charges against her and fined her twenty thousand dirhams, as well as deportation from the country, with the referral of the civil suit to the competent civil court,” according to the ruling’s details, which were shared by the Dubai Government Media Office’s official account on the X platform.

• The Dubai Public Prosecution has disclosed that Rawan Bin Hussein was detained while intoxicated in a public setting, where she incited a riot, attacked Dubai Police officers while they were on duty, and hurled profanity at them. Despite circulating claims of abuse following her arrest, the Public Prosecution affirmed the legality of the actions taken against her.

Rowan’s behavior did not end there, according to sources, as she damaged a vase valued at 5,000 dirhams and took a piece of chocolate from one of the hotel’s closed stores. When a security guard stepped in to stop her, she spat on him and cursed at him.
