Four men have been arrested in Dubai for allegedly stealing AED 60,000 worth of watches from a villa.

The tourists, who are all from China, broke into the Barsha residence when the owner wasn't at home.

A verdict is expected to be issued on March 18.

Until then, the defendants will remain in custody.

The incident has prompted police to remind residents about the importance of making sure their homes are locked when they go out.

They say they've received several similar complaints of burglaries in other areas of the city as well.
