IMHO this doubles as an honor crime : notice how the camel was killed afterward?... At least, she wasn't stoned.
This brings back memories of mind-boggling religious prescriptions about hallal sex with *babies* and animals by late ayatollah Khomeiney ("you can have sex with an animal, but you must slaughter it afterward, the meat cannot be sold in your village but can be sold in the next one",... that kind of things, no, really, I'm not making this up!).
Ras Al Khaimah: A man has been sentenced to three months in jail after pleading guilty to charges of bestiality. The camel involved in the case is to be put down in accordance with Islamic law.
A court official said the Bangladeshi, who worked as a driver, had been spotted going into his employer's barn on a regular basis. His employer became suspicious as his duties did not involve him dealing with animals.
The official said the employer, a UAE national, followed his driver into the barn one day and saw him starting to have sex with a female camel. The owner lost his temper and started beating him. | "Hey, git away from my girl!' |
He then took him to the police station to press charges. The official said the driver confessed to police that he used to have sex with one particular camel. | "I couldn't help myself. She kept winking at me." |
The police arrested him and the case was referred to the Public Prosecution. The official added the man told the prosecution that he had fallen in love with the camel and had sex with the animal. The emirate's Criminal Court sentenced him on Wednesday to three months in jail, to be followed by deportation.
It also stated that the camel be put down as its meat would now be tainted. The animal will be put down at the emirate's slaughterhouse, a representative from the Public Prosecution will be in attendance. |
