Another Moronic Brit!

britexpat's picture

A British tourist has been sentenced to six months in a Dubai jail after being caught taking pictures up women's skirts in a shopping mall.

The man, a 28-year-old electrician from north London named only as L. R, admitted taking the pictures at the Carrefour supermarket in the Mall of the Emirates, using a mobile phone camera which he placed in a shopping basket.

He was apprehended by security guards after female shoppers complained they were being stalked.

He told Dubai's Court of First Instance that he had only taken one picture for a "laugh", sources said.

But the court was shown two pictures of women stored on the defendant's mobile phone, according to local reports.

The judge ordered the man to serve six months in prison.

He had been visiting friends who lived in the country and is thought to have been planning to find a job there.

Instead, he is likely to be deported back to the UK once he has completed his sentence.

The result is believed to reflect the tough stance authorities in the Muslim emirate are taking on antisocial behaviour.

It follows the arrest in July of Michelle Palmer, a 36-year-old British woman, and Vince Acors, 34, a tourist visiting the country, for allegedly having sex on a public beach after a boozy day out.

The couple have denied having sex, but face up to six years in prison if they are convicted of indecent behaviour and having unmarried sex in a hearing next month.

britexpat said Heero_Yuy2 ...

No, I'm too clever for that.. I use other methods, as demonstrated by the following::

Giorgio is in this country for about 6 months, he walks to work every day and passes a shoe store. Each day he stops and looks in the window and admires a certain pair of Bocceli leather shoes. After about 2 months he saves the $300.00 the shoes cost and purchases them.
Each Friday night the Italian community gets together at a dance at the church basement, so Giorgio seizes the opportunity to wear his new Bocceli leather shoes to the dance.

He asks Sophia to dance and as they dance he asks her, "Sophia, do you wear red panties tonight?" Sophia, startled, says " Yes, Giorgio, I do wear red panties tonight, but how do you know?" Giorgio replies,"I see the reflection in my new $300.00 Bocceli leather shoes, How do you like them?

Next he asks Rosa to dance, after a few minutes he says to her "Rosa,do you wear white panties tonight?" Rosa answers, " Yes, Giorgio, I do, but how do you know that. He answers "I see the reflection in my new $300.00 Bocceli leather shoes.
How do you like them?"

Now the evening is almost over and the last song is being played. Giorgio asks Carmella to dance. Mid way through the dance his face turns red. He says "Carmella, stilla my heart, please, please tell me you wear no panties tonight, please, please, tella me this true, " Carmella answers, "Yes,
Yes Giorgio, I wear no panties tonight. " Giorgio gasps and says "Thanka God... I thought I had a CRACK in my $300.00 Bocceli leather shoes.
How do you like them?????

I think that it a lack of his knowledge as some people in liberal societies do such a thing but they dont know that doing such at other places can put them in a lot of trouble.

It used to happen many times in the unviersity campus when i was abroad specially in the book stores. The thing is that firsly women should also dress up properly and other thing is that if some man is caught doing such a thing then there should be a severe punishment so that others dont try this thing again.

This person must be habitual and he must not had been told notto do the same atleast in Dubai or in the middle east.

And just where in this article did it say that the women were wearing mini-skirts? This guy was just a pervert pure and simple!! Don't even try to blame any woman for "his" actions!!!! Don't say that women should dress "properly" because men cannot control themselves.

Well, maybe one day this "caveman" mentality of so many will disappear....but I will not hold my breath.

Please.....UGH!!!

Lisa1004's picture

Lisa1004 said Ok Adan ...

What is your "idea" of decent? I lived in Saudi Arabia for 7 years. I did not cover my head but did wear an abaya. I (along with other expat women) were routinely called whores, tramps, etc. I was offered money on more then one occasion to "go for a ride" with Saudi men....even though at one point I was very visibly pregnant for my youngest child. So why don't you tell me what is "proper"? If I want to walk outside (places that allow it) in a pair of shorts and a tank top or such why can't I? If a young woman wants to dress fashionably in a short skirt why can't she?

I think a better idea would be if perverts learn to control themselves.

Actually Alexa, that is what is happening here in the states. Not in supermarkets but in other places - no more fast food restaurants in South Los Angeles will be allowed. No more sodas (unless they are sugar free) in school vending machines. I guess I had better get out of this thread - the blood pressure is going up with every word that I type!!! Have a good one....

 

Supernurse's picture

Supernurse said Lisa...because you can't ...

Lisa...because you can't wear what you want in these countries and thats because most people have a modicum of decency and respect for the culture they are living in.......thats why!

 

adnanmzfr's picture

adnanmzfr said Well Lisa i lived my parent ...

Well Lisa i lived my parent for 3 years in Saudi Arabia in Riyadh ,the ladies also used to wear abaya but kept their face uncovered. I never heard some one calling them like this.

For sure if you say that dress does not make any difference in inviting some evil men then you are wrong. Every psycologist will tell you the same thing.

Proper and decent dress means that there should not be the open invitation to others to look at you. Decent and proper means that .......:-).

Adnan my friend was a cop in Canada and in two cases he had caught a guy who'd put a camera in a woman's toilet and another in a woman's dressing room, so are you suggesting that woman shouldn't undress when they go to the toilet or try on clothes?

Also I met a reporter from Dubai who'd caught a guy wearing niqab in the women's loo and looking under the stalls. Should women not take of their "modest" clothing in bathrooms either?

All those women wear ababya and shayla...some even cover their face.....I can't recall how many times men in saudi spoke to me,threw papers with phone numbers on me...even at my car window....I did wear abaya and shayla..on some days I even covered my face....it did not prevent any of these things.
That is my experience.

The guy who was wearing niqab and then doing this was strange. It is so diffcult to see anything in that.

Let me give you the example now that is probably more conservative thought.

When i arrived at Doha airport i collected my luggage (very heavy) in front of machine (X-ray machine), my trollery in that prcedure stuck i bit to leg of the chair of a airport security woman sitting in front of it with no visible duty. I said sorry but the man standing near her said to me many times "oh dont you see".

Then i was finding a guy with my company boad standing in the airport and was pushing slowly the luggage trolley, the person in front of me in a traditional arabic dress stopped and told me that dont you hit that trolley to "them". I saw "them" two ladies too much covered in black traditional dress,fully covered face standing still seeing opposite and listening as well. I told him dont worry i will not hit them they are in view, he said no you are looking here and there.

I felt very bad.

"The result is believed to reflect the tough stance authorities in the Muslim emirate are taking on antisocial behaviour."

I hate it when the reports say this sort of thing. It implies that he's unlucky he got caught doing it in a conservative country and the poor thing will be made an example of. They said the same in the reports about the sex on the beach incident. It's not a tough stance, it's just the country enforcing it's laws and values.

There's a good foot between the floor and the doors. And most women when they go to the bathrooms take off their niqab or hijab or whatever to adjust, so a man in there is seeing all this. So you're saying they should dress modestly in the loo's too. Maybe we should never ever take off our clothes at all. Just in case.
