British woman 'raped by three men' in Dubai is FINED for drinking

Dubai
A BRITISH woman who told Dubai police she was kidnapped and gang-raped has been prosecuted for drinking without a licence.
A judge found the 28-year-old guilty and fined her £169 after she admitted to officers she was drunk during her alleged ordeal.
She claimed she was kidnapped by three men after she left a bar in July. The gang are then said to have taken her to a flat where they filmed her being raped.
She managed to escape and told police: “I begged them to let me go but they didn’t and were laughing at me.”
Two of the Iranian men accused of her rape and kidnapping are on trial but deny the charges. The third has yet to be traced. One of the unnamed accused is said to have blamed the other for inciting him into the alleged attack by saying: “She’s drunk and won’t recognise us.”
The trial continues at Dubai court of first instance.
