Dubai A driver claimed that he bit a 6-year-old schoolgirl’s cheeks and neck while playing with her a vampire’s game as he denied his molestation charges in court Thursday.
“I acted as a vampire and we were playing a game when I bit her neck, cheeks and thighs… but I did not kiss or molest her,” argued the 21-year-old Sri Lankan driver before the Dubai Court of First Instance on Thursday.
I did not molest her it was just a vampire’s game… and she is the one who came to me and asked me to play with her
Prosecutors accused 21-year-old D.W. of sexually molesting the British schoolgirl by kissing her neck, cheeks and thighs.
15 years in jail
Chief Prosecutor Khaled Al Zarouni has asked for the implementation of the toughest punishment applicable, and which is three to 15 years in jail.
When the defendant appeared in court, he defended before Presiding Judge Jassem Al Beloushi: “I did not molest her it was just a vampire’s game… and she is the one who came to me and asked me to play with her”.
