A 26-year-old Nepali worker has been charged with choking an Indian man to death in the UAE following a drunken brawl.

The Court of First Instance yesterday heard that the Nepali man, identified as LT, allegedly murdered the fellow worker from India on September 19 last year.

The police were notified about a body that was found in a sandy location in Al Quoz.

"The body was covered with blood. We knew from the workers there that the victim and another man used to drink alcohol together and sleep under the trucks in the sandy yard," police was quoted as saying by Khaleej Times.
 

Police arrested LT on September 26 and he reportedly told them that he had met the victim 15 days prior to the incident.

On that day, they drank together and had a fight. When LT stopped the victim from drinking further as he was very drunk, the Indian man allegedly abused his family, following which the latter attacked him and fled the scene, the report said.
