Dubai: 1 year in prison for unmarried couple

really his a pathan?? but i think most of the driver at GCC is INDIAN... so your story should go like this..

"Well the lady was a russian and the taxi driver is INDIAN so there must have been some mis communication too. I suppose the taxi driver wanted to take the drunk lady to his home rather than to her home and that is when the Police came into the picture"

it hurts right??

so next time before putting nationality on your comments.. think first... COZ NOT ALL UR FINGERS ARE THE SAME!!!

"ignorance of the law excuses no one".

HGL, then the first thing to do is be a celebrity! Anyway, don't they do it discreetly? Those disco partying with booze and mixed genders, are they discreet or not? Do police make arrest on these places?

I still want to know a celebrity do banging each other openly (and not arrested)?

lol

Sometimes it's "hard" to work this out in advance ;o)

true story (from sources):

the guy paid for only 'one' , did 'twice', tried 'third', she asked money, they faught..and now in jail.

lesson learnt : you must know what you want, one two three or a dozen & pay in advance.

happy weekend !!!!!

Nic...agreed... doing all this discreetly just takes away the entire fun from the less privileged, I mean from people who are not celebrities per se. Spend money and still not be able to have the entire fun, not good…:(

No one here is challenging the rules of the country.

What is being discussed here is that they are not openly informing the visitors of these rules and even worse they do not apply to unmarried celebrity couples!

No surprises to me or any other who lives in the region, we know the distance between what they want to show and what they actually are.

If you read this article, which says that she was covered in cuts and bruises, then perhaps the Cabbie was right in calling the Police..

Well the lady was a russian and the taxi driver was a pathan so there must have been some mis communication too. I suppose the taxi driver wanted to take the drunk lady to his home rather then to her home and that is when the Police came into the picture

rules of the country shouldn't be challenged.

btw, Painther picked a valid point, they were beyond kamsutra. :P

you blame the cabbie on this occassion? If he just brought the woman home, then everything should had ended FINE! Right?

visited Dubai, all unmarried couples are to be allowed? So that's the mentality you want Dubai to have? So I have to see Brad dead drunk and Angelina also dead drunk and after making sexual encounter one will encounter an unfortunate accident of falling from a high ground? Hmmmmm, now I get it?

MBK,

This whole region of petrodollars stinks with hypocrisy, beyond the world's already terrible average and they get away with it because the world associates them with wealth!

Spot on NIC and what about all these Sportmen who bring their GF with them to paly sports. No one ever says anything about their off the pitch issues. The whole F1 and the glamour that comes with it..:)

BritExpat.. I do that too, maybe I need to master a Morrocon accent?

Kareena74,

No, a westerner doesn’t need a marriage certificate to travel to Dubai so he is allowed in as well as his girlfriend.

That’s what I mean, they love to flash in the international stage organizing public events with celebrity couples that are not married (Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie as an example) and there is no problem for them, on the other hand when they catch an unknown poor guy, he is treated like he is in Saudi Arabia, the kingdom of dark ages!

Dubai is not transparent and double standards are part of their fckued up system and they insist in projecting a normal western image which is a lie, putting at risk the non-informed visitors.

You've been using the wrong lines all this time..

Apparently, all you need to do is keep repeating ‘I love you’ over and over :o)

of information are you talking about that make visitors at risk in the GCC countries?

They allowed alcohol. They are relax in PDA's (to a ceratin degree). Discreetly done illicit affairs are seldom prosecuted unless very obvious complications came up? So what's information do they need to dissimiate more?

Britexpat I guess that explains it all then..Need to visit that Skanky Bar on my next trip to Dubai on Shk Zayed Rd..:0

flor1212,

the message from my post?

read it and you'll find it:

"Dubai and all the other GCC states need to work on the accuracy of the information they provide to their potential visitors, to minimize their risk of being caught by surprise."

MBK,

lol... that too!

let such illegal things uncheck? I mean, just let it go! That's it?

Would a woman jump or fall down from the window.. maybe she was a hooker and he refused to pay her and then they started to fight and he pushed her and she fell down.. Or maybe he was a gigolo and she refused to pay him so he pushed her on purpose.. Or maybe they were both drunk and thought of trying a new position on the window..

In short it means that in Dubai all the couples and tourists who visit from the West come with a marriage certificate. Do the hotels ask for a marriage certificate before checking them in?

NIC you mean Infected?

Dubai is already affected!

it's forbidden! Precisely always said that if you wanna do something not right, do it discreetly! Again, why will Dubai be affected by such thing?

Jokky well if she had fallen from a high storey window, atleast she would have not endured the embrassment of spending one year in Jail..:)

..so after doing it on the sofa they wanted to try it out at the window. They should be grateful that they were not on one of those higher floors at the Burj Khalifa from where falling out of the window would have been a real disaster.

Well as claimed by someone above if she is Business Lady (if yer know what I mean) then her indemnity Insurance should take care of the Health Care and Legal Expenses.

In Europe working ladies have to takeout Insurance to protect themselves from such mishaps..:)

Yep i thought so too. dubai abounds with ladies, they are actually one of the main attractions of dubai, you get one for a cup of coffee. they are even around the fishmarket, lol...

No point in arguing on even an unwritten rule... 'do whatever, dont make noise'... challenging it isnt serving any purpose except getting yourself in trouble. Thousands go unnoticed or are overlooked... its only these kinds that get caught...

Their own business as long as they are inside the house.

Agree with Nic, however, rules are rules, authorities won't consider so MB's rule applies :)

Right on point nic, there own business!!!!!!!

Frenchie,

Why can't HE have been a prostitute instead of her?

agree with Nic

Whatever it was, it was two adults having consensual sex.

It should be nobody's business but themselves, the two of them ONLY!

Lol painther very creative minds here...

MA, 44, from Morocco and SS, a 29-year-old Russian woman, met at a bar in a five-star hotel on Sheikh Zayed Road in April last year.

The pair went to MA's apartment and had sex twice, but later SS fell from the room's first-floor window.

She suffered cuts and bruises and was put in a taxi by MA but the cab driver was suspicious and flagged down a police car.

So the moral of the story is

1. Dont fall off the first floor window after a busy session.

2. Never take the injured female who fell from the f/F window to hospital in a Taxi always phone 999 and get an ambulance

3. Never admit to having sex.

Now how hard is that to follow..:)

no one admits that FM. it was just a BF-GF thing ;)

Point to notice,

‘fell from window’- must be trying some new adventurous pose beyond kamsutra

‘had twice’- thats better (paisa vasool)

:)

I am guessing she was a prostitute?

ha ha ha !!!, dont do it near windows, as they may break, the bed, bath, sitting room and kitchen should be enough for two rounds...
