    An Oman-based Indian national on Tuesday won a $1 million jackpot in Dubai Duty Free Millennium Millionaire draw.


    Raghu Krishnamurthy became the 143rd Indian to have won $1 million at the draw, the Khaleej Times reported. The daily, however, said that the Indian man was unaware of his win.
