DUBAI — The Dubai Court of First Instance yesterday sentenced two Emiratis to 15 years in jail for kidnapping and raping a 15-year-old French boy.
“The court has sentenced the elder accused (36), who is HIV positive, and the other UAE national (18) to 15 years in jail,” Hussein Al Jaziri, the French boy’s lawyer, told Khaleej Times.
A juvenile court in Dubai is trying the third accused, 17. His trial is due to resume on December 25. Last month, the court had permitted the minor to take a psychological test.
