Sex on beach pair will be deported from Dubai
A few months ago a couple named Vince Acors and Michelle Palmer got arrested in Dubai. The policeman claimed he saw them having sex in public on the beach, while they were not married. Last month the couple feared they would end up in jail after trial but last Tuesday the judges decided that they only have to pay a fine. Vince, who was there on holiday, will be returning to Britain any time now, but Michelle, who worked in Dubai, got fired and need to find a new job.
At first I thought it was a joke, who would arrest a couple for having sex on a beach when they are not married? In Dubai it is illegal to have sex in public when you are not married; in fact it is illegal to have sex in public at all. This explained a bit why they were put in jail, but it still seems a bit over the top. Luckily they were both set free after trial and I am quite sure they will think twice in the future about doing this again.

I certainly do agree with you that it seems to be a bad joke. It is over the top to put persons in jail for having sex when they are not married and having sex out-side. On the other hand, it is the law over there and people should life up to it. Although I do not agree with this law, it is their own mistake.

Hi Bonnie,
I agree with you. I think that it is silly that people get arrested for having sex in public. In my opinion they should not be that strict.
