Scarlett, I'm probably reading too much into it. It's just that the article is titled 'Indians' flee Dubai... and then the article goes on to talk about Indians who have stolen money from the banks and fled back to India.

The article could have just been about how people from various backgrounds have found themselves in a position where it is no longer beneficial to remain in Dubai, but that would be true of people from all sorts of backgrounds.

I'm troubled by the casual nature that the people in the article talk about the theft of money via unpaid bank loans and credit card debts. It's almost as if they think that flying into another country will mean that they leave all their debts behind and no one will ever catch up with them. I guess they forgot that to get the bank account they had to give their passport copy to the bank.

They will be caught, the assets seized, and if they can't repay the loans, they will (hopefully) be jailed, as they deserve.
