Ras Al Khaimah: A Bangladeshi man and an Indian woman have been sentenced to a year's jail and will be deported after they were found having sex in a covered vehicle.
The RAK Criminal Court sentenced the couple after a passer-by heard noises coming from the car and reported it to the police, who caught the couple red -handed.
A senior court official said the couple initially denied having an illicit affair despite the evidence the authorities collected against them.
During the court session, the suspect provided the court with a marriage contract signed by himself and his partner stating that they were already married.
The court official said that the court did not recognise the contract as it was not attested.
