Dubai: A 38-year-old Indian expat, Someswararao Mungi, has won the region’s first 24K gold-plated Tesla Cybertruck in a raffle held at the Dubai Gold Souk Extension.
The unexpected win was the highlight of the ‘Shop and Win’ campaign, which ran from November 14 to January 31. During the promotion, shoppers earned a raffle entry for every Dirham 500 spent at participating stores.
