Dubai: A chef has denied threatening to kill his colleague who saw him throwing his boss's recorder in the garbage, heard a court yesterday.
"I am innocent and I did not do it," the 23-year-old Syrian sweets chef, R.Z., told the Dubai Court of First Instance yesterday.
The Public Prosecution charged the suspect with threatening to kill his 24-year-old Bangladeshi colleague, M.S., and damaging the recorder of his 57-year-old Palestinian boss, M.F.
M.S. told the public prosecution: "I entered the shop and saw the suspect removing the recorder and throwing it in the waste basket. He told me that he would kill me if I told our boss."
M.F. told interrogators: "My son phoned and told me that he found the recorder destroyed and thrown away ... I reported the incident to police."
