A few weeks ago I posted a story on the alleged rape of an 18-year old Emirati girl in Abu Dhabi. You will all be relieved to know that the girl was mistaken. She was not raped - in fact she retracted her statement to that end a few weeks ago, instead saying she was beaten by her brother (and that this is what caused the bodily harm that was mistaken for injuries sustained during the rape).
We can all rest assured that justice was carried out fairly here, and that the accused rapists can go back to living their wholesome, constructive lives.
The article is HERE
My favorite quote:
"Under Sharia law, in order for a defendant to be charged with rape or sex outside wedlock, the court requires either a confession from all defendants or for four mature men, in good standing, to testify that they witnessed the act."
Please allow me the retract the statements of understanding and tolerance I posted in Justice Fail III.
