A lawyer's licence has been revoked after being convicted of assault and other criminal offences.
The Lawyer's Disciplinary Council of Abu Dhabi Judicial Department removed his name from the official roster for violating the ethics and standards of the legal profession.
The council said he was found guilty of assaulting, insulting and threatening an employee while on duty.
"A lawyer’s professional and personal behaviour must follow all the ethics, morals and traditions of the profession such as independence, integrity and good reputation," it said in a statement.
"A registered practicing lawyer must be of good reputation and neither be convicted by the court nor be punished for a felony/misdemeanour involving breach of honour or trust, even if his criminal record is expunged," the statement added.
