Irish woman in Dubai reported a severe beating and they put her in jail for it
WARNING: DISTRESSING IMAGES Irish woman Tori Towey faces charges in Dubai of alcohol consumption and attempted suicide after she was the alleged victim of a brutal attack in her home.
Sinn Fein President Mary Lou McDonald has spoken out about the harrowing experience of an Irish woman in Dubai, stating: "Following one particularly severe beating in which her husband repeatedly tried to break her arm, Tori escaped upstairs and she attempted to take her own life. Tori now faces charges in Dubai of attempted suicide and the abuse of alcohol."
"The system over there, rather than protecting this woman, who is an Irish citizen, chose instead to detain her, to charge her.
You're viewing a single thread.
Can't imagine willingly relocating to Dubai as a solo woman. Not that she should have to deal with this but I'm also not quite sure what she would have expected.
It says right in the post that it was her husband. Without knowing her personal situation and why she married him, maybe reserve judgement of her personal decisions and just have sympathy for someone who was beaten severely and consequently imprisoned for being a victim.
Everything is in the article: charges of consuming alcohol, in the shittiest muslim country. Also being a foreign woman that moved there to make instagram photos.
I don’t go to Afghanistan to play video games while drunk for a reason.
I usually don't read articles like this because there are so many bad decisions that lead to things like this and it frustrates me.
No person deserves to be treated like she was. Nothing can excuse her husbands actions. OTOH she willingly moved to Dubai where this treatment is not only legal but practically encouraged.
The leopards usually eat the faces of the ones hanging out with them.
