DUBAI // Two men have been charged after dumping the body of an Emirati man, who had died of a heroin overdose, at a hospital car park. The two men, an Emirati and a Pakistani in their 20s, were charged with drug use and trying to conceal a crime after tests determined their friend had been dead for four hours before they left him at the hospital. Police said the two, identified only as A A and A B, said they had been injecting heroin with their friend, also in his 20s, at a house in Sharjah last Thursday when he collapsed and died.
Rather than call for help, the two drove his body to a Dubai hospital and left him in the car park, where he was found by a passer-by who called police. rabubaker@thenational.ae

Other simple ideas for sushi rice dishes
Cheat’s nigiri
This is easier to make than sushi rolls. With damp hands, form the cooled rice into small tablet shapes. Place slices of fresh, raw salmon, mackerel or trout (or smoked salmon) lightly touched with wasabi, then press, wasabi side-down, onto the rice. Serve with soy sauce and pickled ginger.
Easy omurice
This fusion dish combines Asian fried rice with a western omelette. To make, fry cooked and cooled sushi rice with chopped vegetables such as carrot and onion and lashings of sweet-tangy ketchup, then wrap in a soft egg omelette.
Deconstructed sushi salad platter
This makes a great, fuss-free sharing meal. Arrange sushi rice on a platter or board, then fill the space with all your favourite sushi ingredients (edamame beans, cooked prawns or tuna, tempura veggies, pickled ginger and chilli tofu), with a dressing or dipping sauce on the side.
