According to the law, the answer is no, unless the lease agreement explicitly states otherwise. This has been a point of contention for many renters in the emirate, who have seen significant increases in rent over the past year. \n\nMeanwhile, a different kind of controversy has been brewing, this time involving a 'Dubai golden visa'. The Congress has been criticizing an Indian politician, Himanta, over his wife's multiple passports, with some even joking about her 'Dubai golden visa'. The row has escalated, with many calling for greater transparency and accountability. \n\nIn other news, a rare glimpse into the 'Dubai Alcatraz' prison has been provided, giving insight into the inner workings of the facility. The prison, known for its strict conditions, has been the subject of much speculation and intrigue. While the exact details of the prison's operations remain unclear, it is evident that the facility is a significant part of Dubai's justice system.", "summary": "Rent disputes and visa controversies have been making headlines in Dubai, with many tenants wondering if their landlords can raise rent mid-lease and a politician facing criticism over his wife's multiple passports.
