Where there is inequality, crime follows. You can't have the cake (cheap south Asian labour) and eat it too (expect all of them to be 100% compliant and crime free as they toil in 50°c and live in sub standard conditions whilst a Sheikh comes in his air con car and walks into his air con house right past the labourer). Some of the places where these labourers are put in are extremely sub standard (bordering on concentration camp standards)

In many European countries such as Sweden, Arabs similarly are seen as "criminal" due to the high rate of crime within areas primarily inhabited by Arabs. Why is this? Well amongst other things young Arab guys suffer discrimination in the job market
Den visar bland annat att den som har ett arabiskt klingande namn har 50 procents mindre chans att få komma på jobbintervju jämfört med en person med ett svenskt klingande namn.
(The study found that a person who has an Arabic name had a 50% less chance to be called to a job interview than a person with a Swedish name)

I know many smart Arab guys here who were good at studies but eventually lost motivation and ended up getting involved in crime , including a neighbour just slightly older than me.
The point is, South Asian labour has turned the GCC from deserts to skyscrapers, however ironically they have very little respect. The day they are provided better rights, better accommodation, better (or even on time) wage etc. crime will automatically go down. It is up to the GCC Arabs if they want to take full advantage of South Asian labour and then take the risk of being at the receiving end of criminal activities of some of them, or improve the labourers situation and reduce the risk of crime.
