00:00Good day. Welcome to the Gulf News Update for Tuesday, May the 5th. Here are the top
00:08stories at this hour. A 20-year-old man will pay 500,000 dirhams to fix the road that he
00:14damaged by driving recklessly and making dangerous manoeuvres. Major General Qaumis Matar Al-Mazaina,
00:21Dubai Police Chief, said the amount was in addition to the fines the driver was issued.
00:25The amount was calculated by the Roads and Transport Authority and will teach him and
00:29people like him to abide by traffic rules, said Major General Al-Mazaina.
00:34The fallout from the fight of the century became murkier last night, with possible lawsuits
00:39in the works and Manny Pacquiao likely to face disciplinary action for failing to disclose
00:44a pre-bought shoulder injury. Apparently, neither Pacquiao nor his team informed the
00:48Nevada Athletic Commission about the shoulder issue until a couple of hours before the start
00:53of the fight, when they asked for an anti-inflammatory injection.
00:58One of the men shot dead by police in Texas at an anti-Muslim event was investigated by
01:02the FBI over alleged militant plans, court documents revealed. The information came as
01:08investigators delved into the background of the two suspected gunmen who opened fire with
01:13assault rifles outside Sunday's controversial exhibit of cartoons depicting the Prophet
01:18Muhammad, peace be upon him. Deepika Padukone says she never intended to
01:22promote infidelity in the My Choice video. Padukone, 29, who finally broke her silence
01:27about the much-debated online video on women's empowerment, said the larger meaning of the
01:31short film was ignored. The video, uploaded last month, is a montage of 99 Indian women
01:36of all ages, ranging from actress Nimrat Kaur to film critic Anupama Chopra, and set to
01:42Padukone's narration. Never let it be said that Rihanna doesn't
01:46know how to make an entrance. On a night when big stars were a dime a dozen, including George
01:51R.R. Martin, Lady Gaga, Madonna and Cher, the pop singer still managed to seal the
01:56show at the Met Gala. She swooped in wearing a fur-trimmed yellow cape with floral swirls
02:02of gold and a train so long that it required three wranglers.
02:06And finally, the weather. Today's high across the UAE will be 36 degrees Celsius, dropping
02:10to 29 degrees at night. That's all for now. Thanks for watching. And as always, you can
