Overview

• The pink diamond is classified as 'Fancy Intense,' weighs 21 carats and has just a 0.01% chance of a comparable find, with an estimated market value of $25 million.
• Three suspects from an unspecified Asian country posed as intermediaries for a wealthy buyer and lured a trader to a villa before fleeing with the gem.
• Following a 999 emergency call, multiple patrol units arrived within minutes and began piecing together the elaborate theft plot.
• The Dubai Media Office released audio of the trader’s distress call and blurred CCTV footage to illustrate key moments of the investigation.
• Investigations and potential cross-border legal proceedings are ongoing after authorities recovered the diamond and detained the suspects.
