An Emirati man was sentenced to three years in jail on Monday by the Court of First Instance which found him guilty of raping his Uzbek girlfriend inside his flat after beating her up.

The court was earlier told that the 39-year-old accused invited his girlfriend over on January 21 to talk about a case she had at the Naturalization and Residency Prosecution, but he assaulted and raped her.

He also kicked her out of his place while she was naked and threw her clothes off his balcony from the 11th floor in Al Nahda.

She got some clothes from his Russian neighbours and went down to recover her clothes and mobile phone. Later, she filed a complaint against him at Al Qusais police station.

The complainant, a jobless woman, said the defendant had bailed her out when she was detained in connection with a case at the residency prosecution. "I went to his place around noon upon his invitation. He was under the influence of alcohol when he dragged me by force inside the bedroom and locked the door. He raped me there for two hours while physically assaulting me. Once done, he dragged me by my hair and kicked me out while I still undressed. He kept saying in Russian that I would not be able to do anything," she told the investigators.

The police raided his flat but no one was there at the time.

A police lieutenant said they arrested the accused around 1am on January 27 in a room on the rooftop of a house shared by bachelors.

"The accused claimed he had been seeing the woman for one year and that she would visit him in his flat where they would have consensual sex."

"He said on the incident day, they argued about her immigration case. He then pulled her by her hair and kicked her out while she was naked as he was angry," the lieutenant said.

A hallway surveillance recording showed the complainant being forced out naked of the flat and then walking to the lift. The accused was later seen going out with his kids and looking normal.

The forensic examination detected semen traces on the complainant's body, which also bore bruises and scratches.
