Dubai: An Arab visitor has been accused of getting drunk and having sex with an Uzbek prostitute he picked from a nightclub in Al Muraqabat.

Prosecutors charged the woman, 34-year-old, D.F., of allowing the accused to have sex for money. Both defendants were accused of consuming liquor.

D.F. confessed to the charges but the man, identified as B.A., a Saudi, denied the sex-for-money accusation. The defendant said he consumed liquor but had nothing to do with the sex charges.

The public prosecutor did not reveal how the matter came to notice, but said that the man was taken naked along with the woman for forensic examination. The test confirmed the charges.

Court records said the Uzbek woman confessed that she was staying in Dubai illegally and that she made her way into the UAE through Al Buraimi. She admitted that she was deported from the country earlier on sex charges, but returned back to work in the sex trade.

A verdict will be heard on December 23.
