British mother, 55, faces jail in Dubai after branding her ex an 'idiot' and his new wife a "horse"

[Yankee-stani]

Just is just ridiculous. You can step out of the house in Lahore and by the time you get to your destination, you will hear a dozen expletives being said among people on the street.

All of Pakistan, probably also all of America, would be in jail according to this law.


Ridiculous.

eheeee those Punjabi potty words are so funny in covos in Lahore I say better than any curse words in English

 

[BRAVO_]

calling ex husband idiot or calling his wife a horse out of anger/jealousy/frustration is natural reaction and is harmless thing so please don't compare it with terrorism and others serious issues

Some members here on PDF even use worse words for each others during heated debate and argument so then we all should landed in jail and should shut down pdf if follow your logic of banning

my friend this is how it is ... they said, take it or leave it ......... still it is largest home of pakistanies out of paksitan and these pakistanies send back remittances which plays an important role in our economy.... and each place has its own laws according to its social system and citizens in that country are bound to respect those laws for example in Germany, Nazi salutes in written form, vocally, and even straight-extending the right arm as a saluting gesture (with or without the phrase), are illegal.” and People have gotten in serious trouble because of the salute.
however i did't saw this news in local media, let see what is the original incident because all i am reading one sided story from British media, normally UAE is a moderate country and show lenience in such type of small cases. even in other cases, results are either deportation or putting penalties

Irani cannot be british?

British news can't be BS?

I'm really not surprised at the desperation of Arab haters.
They are clutching on to the straws.
Everyone knows there are laws in UAE regarding using social media and abusing others is considered crime.
@Khafee anything printed in local news?

My friend laws are not something written on stone . People can make them and they can also amend them if they are making zero sense . I am not saying that there should be absolute freedom on social media but its ridiculous to punish people on such personal matters

British news can't be BS?

sure it can

But British news can't be true?

The world is a strange place in this era.you get to witness things and people you never thought you ever could.

But British news can't be true?

It can be but when there's a conflict of interests and daily mail is involved one must be sure of exaggeration to the least.

Irani cannot be british?

She made a comment on an American-owned website, while in the UK and then she got arrested in Dubai?

There was no crime committed when she was in Dubai! How strange

So shall the UK arrest others when they cross the traffic lights without pressing the button in an another land?

 

[Hack-Hook]

I wonder since when laws of Dubai began to apply who were not citizen of UAE and committed the crime outside the UAE .
It's just like we arrest foreigners who come to iran for not wearing Hijab when they lived in their countries.
By the way the current cyber crime law of Dubai date back to 2012 And part of it 2016 I wonder if the part they use for this case was a law back then when she made the post.

Price one pays for publicly insulting a UAE Citizen and his wife.
