Pakistani national executed in Dubai
Reports from the United Arab Emirates say a Pakistani national has been executed in Dubai for killing an Indian night watchman in 1993.
Local newspapers said the man , Atallah Khair Mohammad, went before a firing squad on Monday.
The execution had been scheduled for April but was delayed after an appeal by Pakistan.
Correspondents say executions are rare in the UAE.
