Man accused of killing his neighbor’s camel
A citizen filed a complaint accusing his neighbor of deliberately killing a prized camel he owned. The man told police that on finding the camel missing from his ranch, he looked around and found it dead about three meters away from his neighbor’s ranch.

In another camel-related incident, an Asian man was rushed to Jahra Hospital and admitted inside the ICU with serious injuries after he was thrown off the back of his sponsor’s camel in Matraba desert.
