DUBAI, Jan 01 : Seventeen Indians on a death row in the UAE for killing a Pakistani man have turned down an offer to pay blood money under a proposed settlement to escape the noose, claiming they were innocent.
Blood money is paid to the next of kin of a murder victim as a fine.
The Indians’ lawyer said, “victim’s family told the court they were ready to accept compensation including blood money but we refused because justice is on our side”.
