It’s definitely a fly, but doens’t look like a fruit fly to me.

So, just out of fun, I did some preliminary checking on this fly, solely based on internet searching. Seem’s that this fly don’t feed on fruit, instead, it’s a predator feeding on other flies, commonly known as robbery-flies, belongs to order of Diptera.

Most probably, the fly in the picture is Neoitamus sp.

And most probably, the left one is a male, and the right one is female fly.
