A social media influencer has been banned from using his accounts for seven days by UAE authorities.
Officials from the Federal Public Prosecution for Information Technology Crimes took the decision following complaints from community members.
Authorities said a number of offensive videos shared on social media were brought to their attention.
They were found to be in breach of public modesty, prompting prosecutors to "summon him" for questioning.
Following an investigation, the man, who has not been named, was charged with posting offensive videos.
He was banned from using his accounts for seven days, although officials said they reserved the right to extend the embargo.
The UAE's cyber-crime laws include lengthy prison terms and fines of up to Dh3 million depending on the severity of the offence.
