British couple gets booted from Dubai for “indulging”
DUBAI, United Arab Emirates — A British couple on trial for allegedly having sex on a Dubai beach asked the judge on Tuesday to be allowed to leave the country. FOXNews.Com
Michelle Palmer and Vince Acors, speaking in low voices, asked the judge for a “quick ruling” that would let them return to Britain. But judge Hamad Abdul Jawad disregarded the request and scheduled another hearing for Sept. 9 to hear testimony from the policeman who arrested the couple.
Palmer, 36, and Acors, 34, were arrested in the early hours July 5 on a Dubai beach after they had been at a hotel party. They were later charged with having sex outside of marriage, public indecency and public drunkenness.
Okay, this has GOT to be embarrassing! Can you imagine, being on vacation with your honey and deciding to get a little frisky in “public” and then being arrested for premarital sex? Wow.
Let this poor couple’s misfortune be a lesson to you: While it might be a “spicy” addition to your sex life, public sex and the thrill of possibly getting caught, simply isn’t quite as exciting as it sounds! Of course, it’s pretty strict in Dubai, and in other countries I’m sure, as opposed to the US or England or where have you. Public display of affection, such as touching, kissing or hugging, is illegal in Dubai and couples - particularly if not married - can be detained by police for indecency.
