Expat won the Dubai lottery with a luxury car as the main prize.
Another rally held during the tennis championship in Dubai made the dream of another resident of the emirate real.
Abdul Gafur Kunnathakat from India, who works for a utility company in the UAE, was declared the winner of the last Duty Free Finest Surprise lottery, which took place at the close of the Dubai Championship finals on Saturday. The man became the owner of a luxury car Audi Q7 3.0.
His ticket went to Spaniard Roberto Bautista Agut, who also became the champion of the tournament.
The 51-year-old expat has long been buying Dubai Duty Free tickets and has been living in Dubai for more than three decades.
Lottery winners usually receive either a million dollars or a luxury motorcycle, but this time the organizers decided to give a completely new car.
“This is such a big surprise. I can’t believe I won this fantastic car. This is the best news I have received in a long time,” Kunnathakat said.
Currently, the cost of such a car in Dubai ranges from 268 thousand to 343 thousand dirhams ($ US 73 - 93 thousand).
