The UAE Public Prosecution warned that those who impersonate a public professional can face up to five years in jail.
Citing Article 299 from the UAE’s new Penal Code, the authority said the same penalty applies to whoever interferes in a public profession or service or performs work related to the duties of a public servant for “an illegitimate end” or benefit.
Offenders can face a jail term from one to five years for impersonating security or police personnel.
