In 2013, Norwegian expat Marte Deborah Dalelv was raped by a colleague in Dubai.
She reported the rape to Emirati police, but was instead charged with adultery. They took her money and passport.
Marte was then sentenced to 13 months in prison for "having sex outside of marriage", and for not having four male witnesses to corroborate her story, in accordance with Sharia law.
She was never declared not guilty. The UAE instead gave her a royal pardon due to global backlash.
Before I give any grace to the UAE whatsoever, I want to know that atrocities like this are no longer happening, and that women aren't prosecuted for reporting rape anymore.
a video of a white right wing talking head getting popped in the neck traumatised you but seeing videos of palestinian children being blown up daily doesn’t even phase you says a lot
N. Ireland has one of the highest rates of violence against women in Europe.
Yet when local men rape and murder women, no one riots.
The rioters are only against rape when a migrant does it... because the rioters see women as their property.
This type of justice is so rare that I could cry with happiness. All solidarity with Nikita Hand, an extraordinarily brave woman. Fuck Conor McGregor for eternity.
Conor McGregor is fucking scum of the earth and fuck anyone supporting him. An entire defence built on trying to make Nikita look like a drunk addict to sway the jury. If you filled her with drink and drugs how the fuck is that even consensual in any case. Fuck the DPP too
