A policeman said that the knife which was found at the site of the murder had helped them track the suspect.
It was reported that the barcode on the knife led the police to the shop where it was bought from and the CCTV footage at the shop showed the suspect buying the knife.
The UAE-based daily, Gulf News had reported that the prosecutors have requested for a capital punishment for the suspect.
The 29-year-old man, however, did not speak in court when the charges were read out to him as he only knew Pashto.
Therefore, the court adjourned the hearing until a Pashto language translator is made available to the court.
According to the prosecution’s confession records, the accused –mentioned as AK – said that the Uzbek woman made him drink alcohol and stole AED6000 from him one evening when he was with her.
After several attempts of asking for his money back and refused, he murdered her.
“She deserved to die”, AK said “I grabbed her from behind and slit her throat thrice”.
The body was found after her Afghan husband has called his Pakistani friends to locate her because after finding her phone switched off.
The mobile phone of the deceased was later confiscated from AK.

it is a serious problem the murdur of a humanbeing is not a joke so we should be coutious about giving wievez on these types of maters.
@Naeem Siddiqui: Because he's a Pakistani? Duh...
@ peace lover - the news would then have been flashed in indian newspaper and not on et
The guy would be dealt with according to the law of the land and would probably get the death penalty pretty soon. Nothing much is say besides that....
@Dee: Would love to know how is he bringing your country a good name? Did you miss the part where it says "the accused said that the Uzbek woman made him drink alcohol and stole AED6000 from him one evening when he was with her." You have got a serious anti-woman attitude. A man who drinks and spends night with another man's wife(a prostitute) is holy but the woman deserved to be killed???
Sound so much like a favorite Indian newspaper article.
A great news for foreign funded NGO's in Pakistan. Certainly whole Human Rights Comm. of Pakistan would follow incidence in chorus.
yes, that is true. if it was an indian criminal it won't be a news. the game is just to give worst pr to Pakistan.
It is a matter of public interest. See he's a Pakistani and is bringing good name to our country. So proud of of you pasthun bhai!
The body was found after her Afghan husband has called his Pakistani friends to locate her because after finding her phone switched off.
husband "has" called her husband? Tenses are mixed up.
This might have been a former Taliban fighter who fled to Dubai.
@ET
Why is this a news at all!!??
A resident in Dubai did a crime and police is after him, he will eventually get caught and will be punished as per the law of the land.
How come all this IS a matter of public interest in Pakistan or elsewhere!!??
