As discussed in our previous article, the offence of filing
false complaints is criminalized in the UAE under Articles 324 and
325 of the UAE Penal Code. This has been done to maintain justice
in the community.
Authorities Included in False Complaints Cases
A question which may arise is whether the first complaint case
includes complaints raised to government authorities?
To answer this point, we would refer to Articles 324 and 325 of
the UAE Penal Code which specifically mention false reports being
made to administrative and judicial authorities. Therefore,
complaints made to government authorities would fall within the
scope of the false complaint.
