Seven on trial in UAE for leaking secrets to Hezbollah
The Supreme Federal Court of Abu Dhabi has postponed to April 18 a hearing in the case of seven suspects, including three Lebanese, accused of divulging state secrets to Hezbollah.
 

At a hearing held on Monday, the public prosecution told the court that the first defendant, who is a government employee, disclosed classified military information of the UAE to a Hezbollah member, who is believed to secretly work for Iran.

 

A second accused, who is an Egyptian geologist working for a petroleum company, handed over information to the other suspects about oil production in Abu Dhabi.

 

She divulged names of the oil fields and provided a map that shows where these Abu Dhabi oil fields are located.

 

The seventh accused is charged with taking photos of foreign embassies in the UAE and airports at Abu Dhabi and Dubai and handing them over to Lebanon's Hezbollah.

 

He denied all the charges leveled against them.
